UserID

Attribute

UserID (UID)

Purpose

The default user ID that is used to connect to your database. Your ODBC application may override this value or you may override it in the logon dialog box or connection string.

Valid Values

userid
where:
userid
is a valid user ID with permissions to access the database.

Behavior

The user name is interpreted in the context of the authentication mechanism. If, for example, the authentication mechanism is NTLM, the user name is assumed to be a Windows user name.
If TeraSSO allows fully qualified user names, the user name may contain a domain or realm, for example, {judy@linedata}. Values containing a character such as @ must be enclosed in curly braces.
SSO is indicated by the absence of a UserID.

Default

None
