Prompting for login name and password
Ben_Desmarais
I'm trying to setup Livelink/Directory Services so users are prompted for a login name and password. In know I can configure Directory Services to synchronize the login name. However, I can't figure out how to set everything up so users can enter there LDAP password.I did setup an Authentication Source and configure IIS to automatically log them into Livelink. However, this is automatic and users can only gain access to Livelink with the account they are logged in with.In the past, I've used configure other applications that prompted the user for there login name and password from LDAP.The desired outcome is to prompt the user with a login dialog for there LDAP account name and password to login into Livelink.Environment:Livelink 9.7.1Directory Services 3.0.0Windows 2003IIS 6Synchronization Method: LDAP Synchronization (Read Only)Ben

If you don'T want integrated security to be used, simply disable it on your IIS web site. Also, if your goal is to let people connect to livelink using different credentials (which is a bit odd but I don'T have to criticize (sorry, I don't have any idea how this word is supposed to be spelled :P )), a user can shift-RClick the IE icon (or any other shortcut) and select run as. Then, they simply log with the required credentials and the new program window will run in the requested security context (as will any windows spawned by this process)
