Configure the Client to use Trusted Authentication

To configure the client to use Trusted Authentication

1. Create a valid configuration file on the client computer.

   The following conditions apply for the configuration file:

   • The name of the file must be TrustedPrincipal.conf.
   • The file must be located at businessobjects_root/win32_x86/.
   • The file must contain SharedSecret=secretPassword, where secret Password is the trusted authentication password.
2. Use the session manager to create a trusted principal and log in to the CMS:
   • ISessionMgr sessionMgr = CrystalEnterprise.getSessionMgr();
   • ITrustedPrincipal trustedPrincipal = sessionMgr.createTrustedPrincipal(userName, cmsName);
   • IEnterpriseSession enterpriseSession = sessionMgr.logon(trustedPrincipal);
