***Exerpt from Config Guide******** If the Crossref-Blank-Password parameter is enabled, and Authentication-Chaining-Mode is set to a value of 1 or 2, users who have a blank password in their User record will be permitted to log in to the system without a password (that is, a NULL password).
For values 3 and 4 to work, the user must exist in the User form with a blank password, and if the Crossref-Blank-Password parameter is enabled and Authentication-Chaining-Mode is set to a value of 1, 3, or 4, AR System ignores those options and authenticates the user that has a blank password in the User form. This prevents a user with a NULL password from logging in to the system when the Authentication- Chaining-Mode option is turned on. **end Excerpt** I can't figure these statements out, it appears the last paragragh contradicts the first paragraph when Authentication-Chaining-Mode is set to 1. Could be the fact that they keep throwing blank and null around interchaneably... Null means that the object doesn't exist, blank means the object exists but it doesn't contain anything. Any insight? thanks _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug10 www.wwrug.com ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"
