In arplugin.h there are three new api-calls, does not seems to be documented
---------------------------------
/* These api calls can be invoked only from a plugin. */
EXTERN_FUNCTION (int ARSetUserNameSource, (
ARControlStruct*, /* IN; control struct */
AR_PLUGIN_GETUSER_FUNCTION, /* IN; function ptr
to fetch username */
ARStatusList* /* OUT; status of
the operation */));
EXTERN_FUNCTION (int ARSetAuthStringSource, (
ARControlStruct*, /* IN; control struct */
AR_PLUGIN_GETAUTHSTRING_FUNCTION, /* IN; function ptr
to fetch authstring */
ARStatusList* /* OUT; status of
the operation */));
EXTERN_FUNCTION (int ARSetNativeAuthenticationSource, (
ARControlStruct*, /* IN; control struct */
AR_PLUGIN_GETUSERAUTHINFO_FUNCTION,/* IN; function ptr
to fetch authinfo */
ARStatusList*

Jarl,
Not really...
It enables me to login to the ARServer as an Admin-user and then access
the ARServer as if I was another user. It can not return any information.
In this case, I would need the end-users login name in the plugin. I have
no need to do a callback to the ARServer and impersonate a user. I need
the user-name to use when calling the external resource, in this case
Documentum.
