AuthenticationMode constants
The authentication method that is actually used for a particular user is determined by the AuthenticationMode specified for the user.
Setting the AuthenticationMode for a user impacts the passwords for that HCL Compass user account.
Note: This enumerated constant became
available in version 2003.06.14.
| Constant | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| _LDAP_AUTHENTICATION | 1 | LDAP authentication. The SetLDAPAuthentication method sets the HCL Compass user password in the HCL Compass database to a special value which indicates that the user is configured for LDAP authentication. This prevents earlier versions of HCL Compass clients from being able to login using HCL Compass authentication, instead of the desired LDAP authentication. |
| _CQ_AUTHENTICATION | 2 | HCL Compass authentication. The new_password argument of the SetCQAuthentication method is stored as the HCL Compass password in the HCL Compass database, as is done for all traditional HCL Compass authenticated users. |
