Hello Gurus,
I am having a situation here.
I have Application, DB, and Business Objects on three different servers.
My BO server has been configured with 32 bit and 64 bit ODBC drivers using Windows authentication.
Connections have been tested successfully on ODBC Drivers, and Universe.
Now the issue is when the reports are executed on the rich client, they are fine. But, when I execute the same report on Info view ( launchpad) I get the SQL server driver authentication. When I further digged in , I came to know that we need to have SQL server authentication on driverse instead of Windows authentication. Client's policy is against this and they do not want to have the user changed to SQL server auth.
They suggested if we can do the Double hop authentication , where an anonymous user goes to infoview or launchpad and executes the reports, and then it takes the windows auth user to reach the DB and retrives the results and displays in the report.
Is this possible? If yes, can you please suggest with a work around of steps need to be taken?
