Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Getting Started:
Installation and Configuration

> ## Setting authentication option to start servers administered by the AdminServer

> You can require that when users are starting servers of the AdminServer (AppServer, Adapter for SonicMQ, and WebSpeed) the `ubroker.properties` file must provide a valid username and password. This authentication for starting the AppServer, WebSpeed, and Adapter for SonicMQ uses the `uboker.properties` file hierarchy to find usernames and passwords. The Progress Explorer password field can be set to supply the username’s password.

> The command-line option that tells the AppServer, WebSpeed, and Adapter for SonicMQ to require a username and password from the`ubroker.properties` file is Require Username (`-requireusername`). You can run `<install-dir>``\bin\genpassword`. This gives the user an obfuscated password that the user can enter into the Progress Explorer.

> The Require Username syntax is as follows:

> Syntax
>     -requireusername
