LDAP authentication

Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) authentication enables you to use existing LDAP user accounts and groups (on an LDAP directory server) in Crystal Enterprise. When you map LDAP accounts to Crystal Enterprise, users are able to access ePortfolio and other Crystal Enterprise applications with their LDAP user name and password. This eliminates the need to recreate individual user and group accounts within Crystal Enterprise.

logon token

A logon token is an encoded string that defines its own usage attributes and contains a user's session information. The logon token's usage attributes are specified when the logon token is generated. These attributes allow restrictions to be placed upon the logon token to reduce the chance of the logon token being used by malicious users.
