Auto Login

Applications Blank
#1

Hi,

I’m using SC6 with the built in security module, which is great:-)

Does anybody know how difficult it would be to write an auto login page which would bypasses the normal “manual” logon page? I guess that there are quite a few session vars that would need to be populated during the logon process. Essentially what I’m asking is, is this feasible?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike

Hi mikew,
You can use your own script to make an auto-login script based on the security module in SC. But in this example i will show you how to make something similar “Auto Pre-Capture user and password on login form” if you want something simple.

[SIZE=5]Auto Pre-Capture user and password on login form using cookies[/SIZE]

[LIST=1]

  • Lest suppose that your user and password values are stored in a cookie ( You can use GET, POST, SESSION or COOKIES, in this example we are using cookies )
  • Then we assing the value of the cookie to login and pswd variables [B]OnLoad [/B]event to populate the login form of the security module: 
    {login}=$_COOKIE["user"];
{pswd}=$_COOKIE["pswd"];

    [/LIST]

    Note: i strongly recommend to avoid using the plain password stored in a cookie;
