APPLICATION DESIGN
To force user authentication regardless of the database access control list, append the Login argument to any IBM® Lotus® Domino(TM) URL. This ensures that anonymous Web users who weren’t initially prompted for a name and password when they entered the site are required to supply a name and password to complete tasks that require user identity.
Note The URLs shown below are for example only. They do not point to existing Web sites.
Syntax
http://Host/DatabaseDirectory/DatabaseFileName?OpenDatabase&login
Examples
http://www.mercury.com/sales/leads.nsf?OpenDatabase&login
Logout command
You can specify a default logout time period to log the Web client off the server after a specified period of inactivity. This forces the cookie that Domino uses to track the user session to expire. Automatically logging a user off the server prevents others from using the Web client to impersonate a user if the user leaves the workstation before logging off. If you enable session-based name-and-password authentication for a server, users can also append ?logout at the end of a URL to log off a session.
http://Host/DatabaseDirectory/DatabaseFileName?Logout
http://Host/DatabaseDirectory/DatabaseFileName?Logout&RedirectTo
"http://acmeserver/sessions.nsf?logout."http://acmeserver/sessions.nsf?logout
"Http://acmeserver/sessions.nsf?logout&redirectto=/logoutDB.nsf/logoutApp?Open"http://acmeserver/sessions.nsf?logout&redirectto=/logoutDB.nsf/logoutApp?OpenPage
Http://acmeserver/sessions.nsf?logout&redirectto=http://www.sales.com
You can build this expression into an application -- for example, using it in a button -- or type it in as a URL.
