NT_SECURITY

This variable determines the context under which AcuLaunch running on Windows NT/2000 invokes the runtime for the client. The following values are recognized: OFF, FALSE, NO, ON, TRUE, YES, NAMED_PIPE, LOGON.

OFF, FALSE, and NO are all synonyms, meaning that the invoked runtime will run under the same context as AcuLaunch. If AcuLaunch is started by a regular user on some machine, this is not a security risk.

ON, TRUE, YES, and NAMED_PIPE are all synonyms designed for use with AcuServer. They are not useful to AcuLaunch in thin client operation, and therefore should not be used.

When set to LOGON, the password field of the ACCESS_FILE is ignored, but a password is still requested from the client. That password is used to actually log the user onto the domain. This means that the password the user provides must be the Windows domain password.
