I have a problem, namely after the installation of Cognos address entered in the browser to "http: // server_name: 9300 / ibmcognos ...." I would like to login done with another address without changing the name of the server (such as an alias), for example, when you type "http: // iWantToLOGIN: 9300 / ibmocognos .. "user had access to the portal. How to do it ?

best wishes,
