Client APIs and authentication support modules

Only specific HCL OneDB™ client APIs support PAM and LDAP Authentication Support modules. To use the other APIs when an authentication module is enabled on HCL® OneDB, you can connect to a DBSERVERALIASES.

The following HCL OneDB client APIs support PAM and LDAP Authentication Support modules:

ESQL/C
ODBC
JDBC

The other APIs do not support PAM and LDAP Authentication Support modules. To use them against a version of HCL OneDB that has an enabled authentication module, connect to a DBSERVERALIASES that does not have the PAM parameters in the sqlhosts file.

The following client APIs, tools, and applications do not support PAM or LDAP Authentication Support modules:

LibC++
Client DataBlade® API
OLE DB
Visual Basic Applications using ODBC
Ilogin and ODBC Test connection

For more information about ESQL/C, ODBC, and JDBC, see the HCL OneDB ESQL/C Programmer's Manual, the HCL OneDB ODBC Driver Programmer's Manual, and the HCL OneDB JDBC Driver Programmer's Guide.
