1.9.6 Express Logon Feature (ELF)

Express Logon allows a user with a Web browser certificate to log on to a host

system through a Web browser without having to enter the user ID and

password. This function is designed to reduce the time spent by an administrator

maintaining host user IDs and passwords. It is also designed to reduce the

number of user IDs and passwords that users have to remember.

In Host Publisher, Express Logon allows a macro to log on to a host application

without the browser user having to enter the user ID and password. All interaction

with the host application is performed by macros executing on the Server. Host

Publisher uses Express Logon to log on to host applications using client

certificates obtained from a browser.
