Scenario #2: Configuring Web Express Logon in a vault-style environment

You are the administrator for a large financial markets/retail banking company. Using Host On-Demand, the company Web-enabled a commercial credit application to provide Internet access to one of the bank's largest customers, a large automobile retailer. This Web-enablement provides better and faster service to the commercial customer who, in turn, provides better and faster service to their customers.

You have just upgraded to Host On-Demand V8 and are planning to implement Web Express Logon so your customers who work at the automobile retailer do not have to log on manually to the commercial credit application, which resides on a z/OS V1R3 host system. In order for this to happen, you must configure your network security application, edit and deploy the Credential Mapper Servlet (CMS) provided with Host On-Demand, and establish your Host Credential Mapper (HCM). Once that is complete, you create your HTML file using the Host On-Demand Deployment Wizard, configure your 3270 host session, and record your login macro.

Here is a summary of your environment:

Within this scenario, you will see this FTP icon to highlight points that relate specifically to enabling Web Express Logon for FTP sessions.
