Parameter: cacsignon

Startup parameters change the behavior of the Service Manager server. You can always set a startup parameter from the server's operating system command prompt.

Parameter

cacsignon

Description

This parameter defines whether trusted clients can log on to the Service Manager server by using a Common Access Card (CAC) and without entering log-on information. Enable this parameter to allow trusted clients to bypass the Service Manager log-on screen and directly log in with a valid certificate stored in a CAC.

Once cacsignon is enabled, the following parameters are automatically (and implicitly) set to 1:
