Emad, I never said you could retrieve the Windows password, and it's entirely correct that you can't. I'm not sure why you believe this is a good idea? You could always just buy a product; for the cost of 10 days time, it's a much easier solution. John

John, No. Nothing in the white paper simply returns the userid/password/auth string. nothing like that. You can retrieve the windows login, but after that you can't retrieve the password. The way it is implemented is that you have to provide the password. Regards, Emad On 12/15/06, John Baker

Stephen, There's a whitepaper that covers the WUT SSO interface - it's really very simple; nothing more than something you write that returns the userid/password/auth string. J ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist

Axton, Others, Our solution is a little LDAP based, but in the AREA plugin. For the Midtier, SSO is delegated to the actual SSO system (SiteMinder, ClearTrust, NTLM, etc.), and as a fallback we take a user/password and authenticate it against an LDAP. However, we do recognise that some people

Can I ask you a quick couple of questions on this .. 1. can you send me your code ? userid and password replaced with userid password 2. What did you compile with ? I have visual studio 2005 and had issues. 3. I thought the userid and password embedded was a Verificaiton not authentication.

Hi Listers, I read BMC white paper titiled, Integrating BMC Remedy ARS with SSO Authentication Systems and Other Client-Side Login Intercept Technologies, where it talks about how to implement SSO. SSO as I understand it means that the application will login using the user's windows credentials

Re: SSO - Again

However, after trying out the codes, it seems what BMC are proposing is just an intercept to the Login i.e. When you login a dll will run to pick up the username\password and pass it to Remedy. This means that in the intercept we will be able to capture the username, but no password. The password

Well Patrick...I actually wrote and compiled the DLL successfully. And when I hardcode the username and password, I click on the user tool and it successfully logs in. I can get the user name using an NT Api call, but the password is not possible. What support told me is that I have to use a

This is the best explanation I've seen of a working SSO implementation. I have not played with the BMC provided sso stuff, so I don't know if it's any good or not. http://www.javasystemsolutions.com/products/sso/diagrams.php We've implemented a very similar solution using SiteMinder. This
