By implementing SSL as part of AREA LDAP your passwords are encrypted. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [email protected] Sent: Fri, 19 Jan 2007 9:54 AM Subject: Windows Cross Ref Blank Password feature - how does it work?
I would like to try and gain an understanding of the mechanics behind the Cross Ref Blank Password Windows NT login validation feature. Please note that I am not asking for an explanation of how to implement the feature (we've been using it for some time) but rather how it actually works - what goes on behind the scenes. Since we are talking about users' network login passwords, I feel obligated to be able ensure those same users that the security of said passwords is not being violated in some way through their use by Remedy, and until I fully understand how password validation is accomplished, I can't provide that assurance. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Jim. _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are" ________________________________________________________________________ Check out the new AOL.
