SEC.06 Can Authentication Information be Shared Between Connections

Symptom

SSO between NWBC connections fails. Can authentication information be shared between connections?

Solution

Note that it is only possible to connect to one server at any time. For more information, see 7.1 NWBC and Authentication and 2.10 Connecting to Different Systems.

When switching between connections, all authentication information is cleared, and this means new authentication is required against any new system (implicit logoff). As a workaround you might consider running two instances of NWBC (one shell per server). Alternatively, you could export all roles onto a portal and use this as single server for your NWBC connection.
