The authentication modes have different login procedures:
In Native mode
P6 EPPM presents a login dialog box that prompts for a user name and password. Depending on whether you enabled the password policy option in Application Settings in P6, the user may have to create a strong password.
In LDAP mode
- All P6 EPPM applications require a login password.
- Since the LDAP directory stores and authenticates passwords, users cannot change their passwords in P6 EPPM.
In Single Sign-On mode
- For P6, the Single Sign-On server requests and validates login credentials. Once a user is authenticated, the launch page for P6 appears so the user can select a database and language.
Users cannot change their passwords in P6 EPPM because passwords are stored and authenticated against a directory server user store.
