set the default value for loginusername

Hi,

I have a requirement where I need to set the value for login username as dmadmin.

I have loged in to the webtop as testinguser.

But when I want to run the below DFC code for getting login username as dmadmin, then I am getting the loginusername as testinguser

IDfSession session = getSession();

String loggedInUser = session.getLoginUserName();

System.out.println("Logged in User is " + loggedInUser);

Can anybody tell me where I need to change, so that I can get the session.getLoginUserName() as dmadmin, if I have logged in as testinguser ?

Kindly help me. It is very urgent.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I am able to set the loginuser as dmadmin by changing configuration in dm_server_config.

We did the below changes in DA and after that it worked fine.

basic configuration -> Repository Properties -> Authorization settings -> then set the Run action as "Super User"

If you are setting the credentials to dmadmin for ALL users, then why are you even asking them to log in in the first place? Just create dmadmin session when the application runs.

dipusonu, I'm not sure what you do mean by "I need to set the value for login username as dmadmin". You really need to clarify your question so you can get help here.

If you are trying to let everyone into the webtop without having the users to provide their creadentials at login, then there is a number of options available such as SSO (but it's I think in the 6.7 and above) or a customization that uses the dmadmin login ticket to login other users etc.

change... from

          IDfSession session = getSession();          String loggedInUser = session.getLoginUserName();          System.out.println("Logged in User is " + loggedInUser);

          IDfSession session = getSession();          String loggedInUser = "dmadmin"          System.out.println("Logged in User is " + loggedInUser);

Which setting in the server config did you change?

Does it matter???, A change like that should foobar the repository!!!

Brian,

I'm curious what he did, b/c AFAIK, what he wants to do is not possible through just simple configuration. Until we know what he did, its hard to determine if he foobar the repository

lastnitescurry

I would agree that what he wants is not possible but as we are not listened to, there is no point in worrying about it...

It does make one worry/wonder as to what is being done so dmadmin has to be hardcoded. Security review team will have a field day with that

Would there be any point in directing this user to look at the previous numerous posts for Super User sessions and encrypting passwords???

Would there be any point in suggesting to this user, that a service account would be much better idea, so that its actions can be audited and the password change process for dmadmin (install owner, I presume) is not made even more complex

Hi Brain and Johnny,

We did the below changes in DA and then the loginuser name is coming as installation_owner name (dmadmin)

basic configuration -> Repository Properties -> Authorization settings -> then set the Run action as "Super User"

Thanks & Regards,

you mean "Run Actions As".. ."The user account that is used to run business policy (document lifecycle) actions."
