Title: How do you access the login page when SSO is enabled?
Post by: Tsunami on 31 Jul 2009 10:27:03 AM
I currently have SSO enabled.  However, I have a 'test user account' that I'm using for setting up for implementing security.  How do I get back out to the login page?  I tried removing the singleSignOnOption in Cognos configuration but it is still signing on.

in IIS administration, only enable "intergated windows authentication" on the cognosisapi.dll in the cgi-bin.
Then windows explorer, copy cognosisapi.dll to logon.dll
(make sure it's allowed as a webserver extention, and set to use anonymous access in IIS admin)
And for the backdoor access now use the adres:
http://servername/cognos8/cgi-bin/logon.dll

I think you want to test it from your intranet with your credentials,

if yes... you can change the settings in IE. Try
internet option -> security settings -> logon (at the very end) click the prompt for user name and password option

this will ask the user name and password next time

I ended up setting the SingleSignonOption to 'False' and that seemed to work.
