RE: Automating Router Signon for Windows NT

[Bob Crothers <bcrothers@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Actually, it depends on why you are starting the router.  If it 
is for ODBC, then it is easy.  Just include 
UID=PROFILE;PWD=PASSWORD in the connection string.  And if you 
also specify noOdbcDialog as shown below (using MFC), you will 
never get that dialog box asking for a signon.

CDatabase::OpenEx(ConnectString, CDatabase::useCursorLib | 
CDatabase::noOdbcDialog);

This works great if the NT box is actually signed on.  I do not 
know how to do it if you are running as a service or using other 
functions of the router.

But then, I could have totally missed the point of your question 
also!  If so, sorry.

That's called password caching, and its not supported under 
windows nt.
I found that info in the Client access help file.
