Siebel Remote and Replication Manager Administration Guide > Synchronizing the Remote Client > Options for Synchronizing and Starting the Remote Client > Configuring the Remote Client to Automatically SynchronizeThis topic describes how to configure Siebel Remote to synchronize without requiring the user to manually enter credentials. To automatically provide credentials, you can use either of the following information:
Situations Where the User Must Manually Enter CredentialsIf any of the following situations is true, then Siebel Remote prompts the user to manually enter synchronization credentials:
If you configure authentication for synchronization, then the user must provide credentials to synchronize. The user can manually enter credentials at each synchronization or you can configure the remote client to automatically synchronize. Depending on the type of authentication, the user might not be able to modify the valid user name and password for synchronization from a Siebel application, although the user can do this task from outside of the Siebel application. The user can modify the local database password in the remote client. For more information, see Unicode Usage for the User Login ID. Using Local Database Credentials to Automatically SynchronizeThe user can use local database credentials that Siebel Remote sends automatically as part of a synchronization request. The local database password must be identical to the valid synchronization password. If synchronization uses the local database credentials, and if these credentials are valid synchronization credentials, then Siebel Remote does not prompt the user to enter credentials during synchronization.
To use local database credentials to automatically synchronize
To discontinue use of the local database credentials to automatically synchronize, make sure the Use Local Credentials check box in the DB Synchronization form does not contain a check mark. Using the Remember Credentials Feature to Automatically SynchronizeThe user can configure Siebel Remote to remember the synchronization credentials. For example, if the user modifies the local database password so that it is different from the valid synchronization password, then it is useful to remember the synchronization credentials. If the user sets synchronization to use the local database credentials, then remembering the synchronization credentials is not available. If Siebel Remote remembers synchronization credentials, then it does not prompt the user for credentials during synchronization. CAUTION: If the user does not configure Siebel Remote to remember the synchronization password, or if you do not configure Siebel Remote to automatically use the local database credentials to synchronize, then Siebel Remote prompts the user to manually enter credentials during each synchronization.
