To use the CONNX Embedded Logon

The CONNX Embedded Logon feature provides a mechanism that enables end users to be identified with separate CONNX logons, but to use a single logon for a particular database.

This feature is useful in Web application and in other n-tier applications. The advantage of using an embedded logon is that the end user does not know the user ID and  password for the underlying database. Security for the end user is controlled solely through the CONNX Data Dictionary.

  1. In the CONNX Data Dictionary Manager window, select a database from the list in the upper pane.

  2. The Database Info tab appears.

  3. Click the Embedded Logon check box. The Embedded Logon File text box is enabled.

  4. Enter a UNC file path as the location for the logon file. CONNX creates and stores the logon file at that location.
