4.0 Login IDs

You use applications to do your work. If an application is password-protected, you must log in to it. To use Novell® SecureLogin to automatically log you in to an application, you create a Login ID (set of credentials) and link it to that application.

If you added an application that has a predefined application, you need to link the login ID to it. You can provide login variables the next time that you access the application.

However, you do not need to add or create login IDs for applications that you enabled for single sign-on in the following ways:

If you encountered a new application through a pop-up prompt and then used the Add Applications Wizard to enable the application.
If you ran the Add Applications Wizard and selected a Web Page or Windows* Application option as the script type.

In these two cases, the Add Application Wizard of SecureLogin created the login ID while you were adding the application to the single sign-on functionality.

You can use the same login ID to log you in to more than one application.

Also, if you have multiple roles, you can set up multiple IDs for the same application. For example, you might be a network administrator as well as a user. When you log in to the network as administrator and then launch an application, SecureLogin asks you to select a profile. After you select the administrator profile, SecureLogin then automatically logs you in with the appropriate credentials.
