WFClient Console --> startup parameters -- I changed the IBIWFC_Authentication to WEB from NONE. Now whenever I try logging in I see only the Developer level permission. I want to revert that change back to NONE. How can I do that? I did change the ibiweb.cfg under client71\wfc\etc\web\cgi but it didn't seem like working. Even I restarted the webserver and WF Client. Where I am missing?

Thanks

Make sure you clear the cache on the administration console...and then restart the services.

If you change it to Web, then the userid used to log on to the admin console is the userid with which you logged on to your pc, provided the webserver is set to iwa and the userid is being passed through tomcat.
But you probably forgot to add your own userid to the admins first.
You can still do that. Go to client71\wfc\etc\web\cgi directory and add your logonid to the list of administrators; list separator is a ;.
If that did not work, then check to see if tomcat is configured correctly to pass the username on. This is a little flag in tomcat's server.xml, with port # 8009. The flag you need to have there is 'tomcatAuthentication="false"'. If it's not there, add it, and restart tomcat.

Hope this helps ...

Added my logonid in the list of administrators, it did the trick. Thanks Gamp, you are great.
