AVoid Signon in the GENIE skin when used in ATRIUM

[tcj2001]

We have a Genie skin as the home page of the ATRIUM web portal, how can we avoid the signon screen of the genie skin, since we already signed in to ATRIUM framework. Is there a way to get the crendential from the ATRUIM and pass it to GENIE signon page of the ISEIRES.

What version of Profound UI are you using?

3.0.5

Thanks.

In version 3, bypassing the sign on screen in Genie depends on the URL that is used to call it and also what Gene's connection type is set to.

Bypassing the 5250 sign on screen display requires that the connection type for Genie is set to "Virtual Terminal". This is set through Genie Admin at either the global or skin level.

Assuming that is in place, the sign on screen is bypassed when Genie is called using a URL like this:

Code: Select all

http://yourServer:8080/profoundui/auth/genie

Or 

http://yourServer:8080/profoundui/auth/genie?skin=yourskin

Try those URLs by typing them in your browser -- you'll see that you are prompted for sign onto the http server. Once doing that, the 5250 sign on display is bypassed. In Atirum, you are already signed into the HTTP server, so the authentication prompt is bypassed also.

When you use a Genie macro for the home page (or any menu option), Atrium will always call Genie using URL #1 above to bypass the sign on screen. You can override the URL Atrium is using -- usually to use an alternate skin This is set on the menu option (or home page entry) when a Genie macro is selected. If you do override, make sure you use the /auth type URL as shown in the 2nd example.

Also, you can simply call Genie as a "web application" for the home page or menu option. You might do this if you want to bring them into their default initial program or menu without taking any macro actions.

Just make sure to use one of the 2 URL examples above if you are doing that.

Thanks that worked

We enabled kerbros single signon for PROFOUNDUI HTTP server, and we could get into the http://xxxxxxx:8080/profoundui/welcome with out signing in, and even if we call a RPG OA type of program anonymously it is passing the correct userid.

But doing this broke the atruim login in http://xxxxxx:8080/profoundui/atrium, its says invalid password.

Can we avoid this login screen of Atrium?

Try this URL for Atrium:

http://yourServer:8080/profoundui/atrium/menu

If you have Kerberos properly configured, this will get you directly into Atrium.

The other URL is for the Atrium sign on page. With Kerberos, you are not signing in -- it's automatic.

that works,

I have now enabled kerberos, how to call a rich display program anonymously but pass the correct user id to it.

sorry, i got it working.
