At Clemson, our Library/IT department hosts a webpage on a secure server that requires authentication.   It’s a pretty simple page – Resource Name, Access URL, Username/Password, other info (like simultaneous user limits, etc.),

 

We prefer IP controlled, but esoteric resources that are used primarily by commercial enterprises (e.g., for our architecture, packaging programs) can’t be accessed any other way.

Hi everyone,

 

I would like to find out how you all handle electronic resources that are not IP supported and require a login for access. 

 

We can force all users trying to access the resource to authenticate through the proxy, but a login is still required.  How do you supply the login information to authorized users without others being able to see it as well? 

 

I feel like this is something I should already know….but I don’t! 

 

Thanks,

Carol
