Single Sign on

we have a third party single signon for most of our windows apps, we would like to be able to have single signon also for IBM i , we currently can get the credentials to go, with no emulation or get the emulation to a signon screen. we cannot pass both currently only accepts one plugin, can we get it to accept two plugins ?

C:\Program Files (x86)\IBMiAccess\IBMiAccess_v1r1\Start_Programs\Windows_x86-64\acslaunch_win-64.exe /plugin=5250 /plugin=logon /SYSTEM=10.1.254.254 /USERID={username} /PASSWORD={password}

in the current setup we can get the signon screen and force everyone to signon, just checking to see if there is a way to do this with ACS ......any input is greatly appreciated.


Use Case:

single signon for all users,

    ACS supports single sign on via kerberos. However, your example seems to lean more toward bypass sign on which is also supported as an IBM i solution. I'll suggest you open a PMR and work with our Service team. They will be able to help walk you through the available options.

    To the submitter - If your Windows authentication uses Active Directory, then you probably already have SSO in ACS through the Kerberos support on IBM i in its Network Authentication Services.

    You would use NAS and Enterprise Identity Management (EIM) on IBM i - the latter maps your Windows principles (users) to the IBM i user profile for the same person.
