Using NT ID for Section Access

[amars]

Hi all,

I am trying to use NT ID & NT Password for Section Access but by the default mechanism of Qlikview when I use the NT Name it takes the machine's login ID for Section Access . I want that it should ask for user ID & Password & a person should be able to login with NT ID & NT Password. I don't know how to specify NT Password when using NTName or some mechanism by which I should be able to use NT Password in Password.

Thank's in advance.

Regard's

Amar

Hi Yiling,

I got the same through NTNAME section access.And it works for me.

You can check the same if it helps you.

The script is as below,

Section Access;
Load
'USER' as ACCESS,
DOMAINNAME AS NTNAME,SCEN
Resident USERINFO;

Section Application;
Load SCEN Resident USERINFO;

Here my domain name and access info is coming from the database, so which all users NTNAME is mentioned in the database, they only can open the file.

And when the allowed user tries to open the file its not asking him the userid and password again, as the same is fetched from the windows NT login.

Hope it may help you.

Thanks,

Mahasweta

If the end user is accessing the document over the web, make sure you have IIS setup to handle windows authentication or else it will popup with a qlikview login/password box that will not work properly.

How about if the qvw server is not set up with IIS but with their own web server service?
