Using SecureLogin with Client Software

When you use SecureLogin with the following, additional functionality allows SecureLogin to leverage the user's directory authentication information:

• The Novell Client^TM for Windows NT* or the Novell Client for Windows 9x
• The eDirectory option (selected during installation)
• The eDirectory with SecretStore option (selected during installation)

You can reference the ?sysuser and ?syspassword variables from within an application script, avoiding the need to store a copy of this data in the directory. Additionally, when the user is authenticating to SecureLogin while disconnected from the directory, the directory password can be used in place of the user's passphrase answer.

If you use SecureLogin with the Novell Modular Authentication Services (NMAS^TM) client, using the eDirectory password method, no additional installation or configuration is required. By default, the NMAS client hides the eDirectory password field on the Novell Client login dialog box in favor of a subsequent password prompt.

To re-enable the Login dialog's password field:

1. Right-click the N icon on the system tray.

2. Click Novell Client Properties > Location Profiles.

3. Click Default in the Location Profiles window, then click Properties.

4. In the Services page, click Properties.

5. In the Credentials page, check the Enable Password Field check box.

6. Close dialog boxes by clicking OK.

To enable use of eDirectory login data without the NMAS client, install the SecureLogin client login extension (slina.dll) from the \securelogin\terminalserver\citrix\srv\nw directory.

1. Without replacing newer files, copy slina.dll and unicows.dll to the Windows system directory (c:\winnt\system32 or c:\windows\system).

2. Register the login extension by double-clicking the appropriately-named .reg file.

   • On Windows NT, Windows 2000, or Windows XP workstations, register the login extension by opening Register NT LoginExt.reg.
   • On Windows 98 workstations, open Register 98 LoginExt.reg.
