What is the best Authentication?
Quote from Guest User on December 1, 2016, 10:58 amI am trying to decide on the best Authentication method of the three options: Forms (internal); Windows (users PC) and LDAP (Users domain)
Windows Authentication may not work for users accessing via mobile or other browsers (eg. on a different / home PC). Unless they carry around the "personalized" link? The generic link https://HOST/officeclip/mobile/ will probably not work.
Forms is probably the most robust being internal to the program.
However, LDAP would enable users to keep a single username and password across the Active Directory control i.e. within the domain.
Any comments or suggestions?
