Title: Passing credentials to Sun One
Post by: larryPrisock on 11 Jul 2006 04:15:38 PM
I am looking for a way to pass authentication credentials to a cognos series 7 namespace. I am using the Sun One Directory server for authentication. I need to set up a one stop logon page within our corporate website and based on those credentials the user will be authenticated and redirected to either Cognos or another application within our site. Any Ideas???

Yes it is possible... if all the applications that are working under the web application have the same access name space.
Cognos supports the single signon access. And it has a capability to interact with the front end applications such as JAVA and .NET.

Thanx,
