I get authentication error when trying to log into cognos from a BlackBerry.

Supposedly, I need to turn off SSO on cognos virtual directory. Is this true?

how do I go about doing this??

Any help is appreciated

Ricky@MDPD

Yes, it is true... you do this at the IIS side (not in cognos)

Only set SSO on file cognosisapi.dll (make sure both default.htm and index.html are set to use this cognosisapi.dll.

Now regular users connecting to http://cognosserver/cognos8 get SSO authentication.

On your blackberry you connect to:

http://cognosserver/cognos8/cgi-bin/cognos.cgi

And you will get a logon prompt.
