Login Manager PAM Capable

The Appx Login Manager can now use PAM to validate user ids/passwords.


Overview:

The Appx Login Manager can now use PAM to validate user ids/passwords.

No action is required to activate this ability, it is built in to the 5.3 engine and client.

To interrupt a running job, press Control+END simultaneously. On Mac keyboards without an END key, you can use FN+RIGHT_ARROW for the END key, the complete sequence would be FN+CTRL+RIGHT_ARROW.

The designer can control which processes can be interrupted via the 'User Cancel Ok' flag in Additional Attributes at the process level. The designer can also control the behaviour of the parent process when a child process is cancelled via the 'Cancel Disposition' under Additional Attributes for Optional and Automatic children.

When interrupting a running job, the End of Process event point is executed for all processes and control is returned to the user.

In Application Design, the designer can use this keystroke to interrupt an input process and enter the debugger, even if a TRAP has not been previously set. To enable this capabilty while running outside of Application Design (ie, as a normal user), set the environment variable to APPX_DB_TRAPS to a non blank value.
