You can require user IDs and passwords for each Internet-based server and AppServer accessed by WebClient or the WebClient application. Although user IDs and passwords are not required, using them strengthens security.
Note: Progress Software Corporation recommends that you seriously consider protecting each server accessed by WebClient or the application with a user ID and password.
For more information on user IDs and passwords for a particular Internet-based server, see the documentation for that server. For more information on setting user IDs and passwords for an AppServer, see OpenEdge Application Server: Developing AppServer Applications.
