Can existing RACF User Ids be used with PASSPORT?
Yes, here is one method of achieving this: • From the Intranet, a user logs in and finds an HTML link to gain host access • The HTML link points to an active server page (ASP) on a Windows 2008, 2003, or 2000 Server • The ASP queries the employee ID through a session variable • The ASP then uses the employee ID as an index value and retrieves the corresponding host LU names from a table stored on a SQL server • The ASP then launches standard host session(s) with the LU name specified at run time • The appropriate number and type of sessions are established If the user tries to bypass the Intranet login process, via a shortcut or a bookmark for example, they are redirected back to the login page.
