How does Federated Query Server handle authentication?
Federated Query Server supports Basic, NTLM, Kerberos and delegated HTTP authentication. It can also access content repositories that require a user to log-in via a Web form. Credentials can be stored in the Federated Query Server configuration file, specified on the search form, or obtained from the Web server. Additionally, Federated Query Server can pass cookies between the browser and a content repository, in either or both directions.
