To use Open Client 11.1 security services in your PowerBuilder or InfoMaker application, all of the following must be true:

• SQL Server 10.x or 11.x through Open Client 11.1

You are accessing a Sybase SQL Server 10.x or 11.x database server using Sybase Open Client Client-Library (CT-Lib) 11.1 software.

• Network security mechanism and driver

You have the required Sybase-supported network security mechanism and Sybase-supplied security driver properly installed and configured for your environment. Depending on your operating system platform, examples of supported security mechanisms include: Distributed Computing Environment (DCE) security servers and clients, CyberSAFE Kerberos, and Windows NT LAN Manager Security Services Provider Interface (SSPI).

• For information about the third-party security mechanisms and operating system platforms Powersoft has tested with Open Client 11.1 security services, see the Release Notes.

• Can access the secure server outside PowerBuilder or InfoMaker

You must be able to access a secure SQL Server 10.x or 11.x server using Sybase Open Client 11.1 software from outside PowerBuilder or InfoMaker.

To verify the connection, use a tool such as ISQL or WISQL to make sure you can connect to the server and log on to the database with the same connection parameters and security options you plan to use in your PowerBuilder or InfoMaker application.

• Powersoft database interface

You are using either the Sybase Systems 10 and 11 database interface (on Windows or UNIX) or the Sybase Systems 10 and 11 distributed application interface (on UNIX) to access the database.

• Release DBParm set to '11'

You have set the Release DBParm parameter to '11' to specify that your application should use Open Client CT-Lib 11.x behavior.

• Security mechanism and driver support requested service

The security mechanism and driver you are using must support the service requested by the DBParm parameter.
