I have a cognos 10.2 server on a linux server. The set up is as follows:
Siteminder authenticates to LDAP then forwards request to cognos. The LDAP configuration in cogconfig is set to user the Siteminder Variables "(uid=${environment("SM_USER")})".
The namespace for cognos is LDAP.
So here's the issue i want to pass the user id and password. In the JDBC connection i have to pass the "logdata" option. How do i get the username and password entered from cognos so that i can pass to the method? Also does anyone know what the ^User ID and ^?Password is in the cognos connection string because i can't seem to find any info on either of them.
