I adjusted our MRE site.wfs file to force all user IDs to lower case. It works for native MRE and dev studio, but not for BID. Does the BID login process skip the site.wfs? That doesn't sound right to me.

Here is my site.wfs:

make_string_lower(IBIMR_user)
IBIMR_user = &_make_string_lower
IBIC_user=&_make_string_lower (pass)
IBIMR_user (pass)
IBIMR_domain (pass)


Thanks,
Shawn

Shawn,

I think site.wfs is always applied (except, perhaps for ReportCaster).

BID uses the variable WORPUSER so you may have to use make_string_lower on that too.

I get a null value for WORPUSER. Has the name changed for that variable? IS there a way to find out what variables are available?


Thanks,
Shawn

Hi,
The parameters you can pass in the dashboard application can be found under
the WebFOCUS Security & Administration Version 7.61 manual starting on page
121 "Dashboard Sign-On Processing"

These include:

WORP_USER
WORP_PASS
IBIWF_language
WORP_MPV
GroupName
WORP_REQUEST_TYPE

Under the site.wfs located under ibi\WebFOCUS76\client76\wfc\etc you can set the following:

WORP_USER(pass)

WORPUSER in WF v5.3 has changed to WORP_USER in v7.6.

<set> WORP_USER = &WORP_USER (pass)


Shawn, I'm really sorry - it's not WORPUSER, but WORP_USER.
