Re: Authorized Users Question

Hi Tony--RIT has implemented a proxy-server solution to authenticate users and it has been working well for us. When someone attempts to access a restricted library database from a non-RIT IP address, they are automatically redirected to a special html document explaining that the services are restricted to members of the RIT community and that an RIT computer account/password is required to proceed. Upon entering their unique RIT password the user is authenticated and allowed access to the database--and all other on-liners are kept out. ********************************************************* Liz Dopp Electronic Resources Librarian Wallace Library, Rochester Institute of Technology EADWML@RIT.EDU 716/475-2028 http://wally.rit.edu *********************************************************
