Accessing Multiple Databases
When using CONNX to access multiple databases, a separate logon is required for each database. To simplify the logon process, CONNX incorporates an integrated logon model that requires only one user name and password and stores the logon information for all accessed databases.
When a user first logs in, their user name and password are entered and then stored in the CONNX Data Dictionary (CDD) for future use. If the password is changed on the host machine, CONNX prompts for the new password and then automatically updates and stores it in the CDD. The CDD is encrypted with a 128-bit key that guarantees protection of vital information.
