The Multi-Tier OpSysLogin feature authenticates users at the operating system level. This provides enhanced security for databases with known security issues, such as older versions of Informix, Ingres, or Progress, which lack internal user authentication.
Note: The OpSysLogin feature requires that the Request Broker run with permissions of the root user. After enabling the feature as described below, we recommend using the Multi-Tier security Utility to enable ordinary users to launch the Broker with root permissions.
Use the following instructions to configure OpSysLogin, if required for your deployment.
