dear list,
is anyone willing to help on such implementation?

University
- or the SSO class provided by BMC itself
Both need better settings as they do not work.

I am stuck at this requirement and was wondering if this is feasible to

survey, with a survey link.
2) The link opens the survey form in the brower without the user
authenticating in the midtier. A

How about prepopulating the userid from the ticket when the survey is created?

Hi Rick,
The ticket data is available and the requester details are populated in the
survey. However, there is also a requirement to capture windows login id of
the user submitting the survey.

Is there any way that the user could be sent a link to a survey that isn't
theirs? And if grabbing the user if is so important, why not ensure a login to
take the survey. Seems like a long path to satisfy a dubious requirement.

You need to configure the load balancer to handle rpcbind traffic. This can
be done by redirecting udp and tcp ports 111 to the Remedy servers in
addition to the port Remedy listens on.
This assumes you have the portmapper enabled for Remedy on each of the
virtual machines.

Hello,
The HttpServletRequest method getRemoteUser() will only return one if a

Of course, the best way to approach this is by using some type of

yes we have portmapper running as well as a port hardcoded on both servers.
So could we essentially hard code the load balancer to bind to our specific
port, lets say 10 every time is passes the traffic? Is that what needs to
be done so the users do not have to put that port in?
