Bypassing Siebel Analytics Server Security

---

Another option is to bypass Siebel Analytics Server security and rely on the security provided by issuing user-specific database logons and passwords when the Siebel Analytics Server submits queries to databases. The databases can then determine whether the query will be performed for the user.

The Siebel Analytics Server issues queries to databases in one of the following ways:

By using the user IDs and passwords configured in connection pools when the connection pool property Shared Login has been checked.
With database-specific user IDs and passwords that are specific to each user. Configure the database user IDs and passwords in the user's profile in the Siebel Analytics Server repository.
If you are using database-specific login information, connection pooling needs to be set up without the Shared Login property, allowing it to accept database-specific user IDs and passwords.

For more information on connection pools, see Working with Connection Pools.

Bypass Siebel Analytics Server security by setting the authentication type in the NQSConfig.INI file:

AUTHENTICATION_TYPE = BYPASS_NQS;

See Siebel Analytics Installation and Configuration Guide for additional details.
