Suggestion: passthrough authentication for RDWeb and OWA pages

[Ephelyon]

Hi all,

 

HAP+ looks as if it should be able to consolidate a number of services into a single portal for us, which I'd welcome.

 

However, I'd rather avoid publishing individual RDP files when I've already got RemoteApp to generate them on demand (for example).

 

By default, "Remote Apps" and "My Emails" link to our RDWeb and OWA pages respectively. Could there be a way to pass through the login credentials of the HAP+ user to both of these services such that when one clicks on "Remote Apps", one is not prompted to log in again through the RDWeb form (same for OWA)? Most of our settings are at default, save for configuring the available mapped drives according to our environment.

 

I'm also wondering how to achieve this:

 

 

Where is this "sidebar" menu and is it passing things through as above?

 

Thanks,

I don't think it's possible to do this as all 3 use different cookies for authenticaton

Okay then, thanks anyway. How does the sidebar thing work out of interest?

It's rendered from the hap+ javascript, which queries the HAP+ LiveTiles api for the list of tiles to create

Right, thanks.
