AuthenticationMode constants

The authentication method that is actually used for a particular user is determined by the AuthenticationMode specified for the user.

Setting the AuthenticationMode for a user impacts the passwords for that Rational® ClearQuest® user account.

Note: This enumerated constant became available in version 2003.06.14.
Constant Value Description
_LDAP_AUTHENTICATION 1 LDAP authentication. The SetLDAPAuthentication method sets the Rational® ClearQuest® user password in the Rational® ClearQuest® database to a special value which indicates that the user is configured for LDAP authentication. This prevents earlier versions of Rational® ClearQuest® clients from being able to login using Rational® ClearQuest® authentication, instead of the desired LDAP authentication.
_CQ_AUTHENTICATION 2 Rational® ClearQuest® authentication. The new_password argument of the SetCQAuthentication method is stored as the Rational® ClearQuest® password in the Rational® ClearQuest® database, as is done for all traditional Rational® ClearQuest® authenticated users.
