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.
