User Name and Password Description
SGD server When you log in to SGD, you need to type a user name and
password so that the SGD server knows who you are and can
display your webtop. You do not need to type this password again
until the next time you log in to SGD.
You might also be able to log in to SGD anonymously, that is,
without typing a user name and password.
Application servers When you start an application, you might need to supply a
password for the application server that runs it. The SGD server
can remember these passwords, so you do not need to type them
every time. Use the Save This Password option, if available, when
you type your user name and password.
If you want to use a different user name and password to run an
application, you can force SGD to prompt you.
