Why do you need the HTTP Header? Can't you also include the domain in the HTTP Header?

Thanks for the reply Daniel

For SSO we are using "siteminder", it can give only user name in a header variable "SM_USER", that is the reason i am looking for the way to mention mutiple domain.

thanks again

Hi dirk

Solution 1:

Http header injection by adding an custom page in qlikview website.This page will read a username from the http header variable.Using this username we will find which domain he belongs to, then we will add one more header variable for concatenated value(domain\username). This variable can be used for HTTP Header configuration in QMC.

Solution 2:

Simple way of solve this problem is, Take all the users from different domains and go with the configurable ODBC option in System > Setup > Directory Service Connector. This worked perfectly in our case.

Thanks

Hello,

I have to call .aspx page (on server 2) from .aspx page (on server 1) passing QVUSER with http header.

I tried to use Response.Redirect but all the http header are cleared before executing the statement.

How can I achieve it in a asp.net portal ?

I need to pass the user identity to QVWS.

Please let me know.

Many Thanks

Best regards
