In the LOGON Example below, USER1 is authenticating using the host
X2.Y2.Z2.LOCAL. Hence, the user prefixes the password with the ++
symbols (specified by the LDAP_GROUP_CHARACTERS keyword in the UACONF
file above), and also prefixes the LDAP Group name corresponding to the host name
which is LD2. Refer also to the LDAP_GROUP keyword in the previous section.
LOGON Example:
TACL> LOGON USER1
Password: ++LD2++mypassword
The following example is for logging on together with LDAP Impersonation.
UACONF Example:
LDAP_IMPERSONATION_CHARACTERS "//"
LDAP_GROUP_CHARACTERS "++"
LDAP_GROUP LD1
LDAP_GROUP_DEFAULT OFF
LDAP_HOST X1.Y1.Z1.LOCAL
...
LDAP_GROUP LD2
LDAP_GROUP_DEFAULT ON
LDAP_HOST X2.Y2.Z2.LOCAL
...
In the LOGON Example below, USER1 is authenticating using the host
X1.Y1.Z1.LOCAL by impersonating as USER2. Hence, the user prefixes the password
with the user that is used for impersonation ( USER2 ), prefixes and suffixes USER2
with the impersonation characters ( // ), and uses the LDAP_GROUP_CHARACTERS
++ with the LDAP Group name corresponding to the host name which is LD1.
LOGON Example:
TACL> LOGON USER1
Password: //USER2//++LD1++user2password
