While excited about having windows authentication for our users (we're a RAMP client), I do have a question. As I understand it, the security settings for any user allow either windows authentication or the old SQL Server based authentication, but not both. If Windows authentication is chosen, the old SQL password and account associated with the Tessitura user are completely deleted. So far so good for logging in to the client while in the windows domain.
But what about remote services that use Tessitura User username and password? For instance:
1) TNEW Admin Portal
2) Web Reports
3) Tessitura on the Go
4) The entire REST API...
Once you convert a login to Windows authentication, you can pass your windows credentials to TRBO, TessituraWeb(On the Go), etc... Basically once the switch happens, all the Tessitura service backed applications will validate that user against the domain.
I see. Will we expect to keep "service" type accounts as SQL accounts then, i.e. accounts that are not associated with any Windows user?
