This information typically includes a database account and a Siebel user ID. The authentication system that Siebel Remote uses resides outside of the server database. Guidelines for Using a Security AdapterSiebel Remote can use a security adapter to authenticate a synchronization for a remote client. A security adapter is a plug-in to the Authentication Manager. To get the Siebel user ID, the security adapter uses credentials from a database account and, optionally, a set of roles from the authentication system. The user enters these credentials or an authentication service provides them. The Synchronization Manager server component accepts requests for synchronization and manages the synchronization. It delivers credentials to the security adapter and receives the server database credentials of the user from the security adapter. If you configure Siebel Remote to use a security adapter, then consider the following guidelines:
