Using ABL callbacks in authentication systems

ABL authentication callbacks allow you to:
*Extend or modify the built-in authentication systems where OpenEdge performs the user authentication (_oeusertable, _oslocal)
*Extend an SSO-only authentication system, including the built-in _extsso or a user-defined authentication system that is not enabled for OpenEdge-performed user authentication
*Design and implement a user-defined authentication system that is enabled for OpenEdge-performed user authentication
* Advantages of using ABL authentication callbacks
* Running ABL callbacks
* Adding an ABL callback to an authentication system
* Extending the built-in systems where OpenEdge performs user authentication
* Extending SSO-only authentication systems
* Using ABL to implement user authentication systems
* Creating an ABL authentication callback procedure
