Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Need help setting up proxy user
A little background. I've developed a web page that uses Autodesk
MapGuide that retrieves data from an Oracle 9.2 database. I've setup a
datasource in MapGuide that has a low privilege user id and password
to connect to the db. What I want to do is connect to the database and
have the session run with the privileges of the client based on the
Windows userID. I have the OS authentication setup and working but I'm
not sure how to change the session privileges.
I've read the documentation on n-tier proxy authentication and this seems like it's what I want to do but I'm getting lost in trying to implement it. Can someone give me a simple step-by-step on how to do this.
Thanks,
Bob
