currently we use the LAE file to authenticate users - users and groups) and then they are required to log in with a username and password - we would like to change this to active directory, where they are automatically authenticated because they have already logged into their pc and we know who they are at that point. The biggest issue I am concerned with changing the authentication is the current security we have in place for some of the reports - e.g where the sales people only get back their own records - that looks at a variable that is pulled from the LAE file - so I am not sure how active directory would work with that . What if username in cognos is not the same as NT Login name??
