A method of integrating software applications comprising:
- customizing properties of an INFOVISTA application to accept format of login strings provided by a SITEMINDER application;
- modifying authentication information in properties of the INFOVISTA application to match authentication information that is to be sent from the SiteMinder application;
- and
- customizing a SITEMINDER application to pass authentication information needed by the INFOVISTA application for login of a user into the INFOVISTA application using a single sign-on interface provided by the SITEMINDER application.
A computer readable medium having a program for integrating software applications, the program comprising:
- customizing properties of INFOVISTA application to accept a format of login strings provided by a SITEMINDER application;
- modifying authentication information in properties of an INFOVISTA application to match authentication information that is to be sent from the SITEMINDER application;
- and
- customizing the SITEMINDER application to pass authentication information needed by the INFOVISTA application for login of a user into the INFOVISTA application using a single sign-on interface provided by the SITEMINDER application.
A system for integrating software applications comprising:
- a first component configured to customize properties of an INFOVISTA application to accept a format of login strings provided by a SITEMINDER application;
- a second component configured to modify authentication information in properties of the INFOVISTA application to match authentication information that is to be sent from the SITEMINDER application;
- and
- a third component configured to customize the SITEMINDER application to pass authentication information needed by the INFOVISTA application for login of a user into the INFOVISTA application using a single sign-on interface provided by the SITEMINDER application.
