2.2 Specifying the Login Server
You must provide users with the URL of the provisioning server. The URL should include any scripts and
macros you are using.
The user enters this URL into the field on the Bria Login dialog.
When Bria starts, the Login dialog appears with “Manually enter login server” specified in the Profile field.
The user should enter the server URL and their login credentials and click Login. Bria attempts to log into that
server, as described in “The Login Process” on page 11.
If the login is successful, then account credentials and other data are sent through provisioning. This data, along
with the manually entered URL for the login server, is stored locally on the Bria computer. The next time the
user logs in, the locally stored server URL is used.
Changing the Login Profile
The Preferences > Application panel in Bria lets the user change the login behavior by checking the Enable
login screen field.
Keep in mind that this field is intended to allow you, the administrator, to experiment with login during the
deployment phase; it is not intended to allow users to skip login, for example, by displaying the Login dialog
and choosing the “No login required” option.
If a user first logs on by manually entering the server URL and then later changes to “No login required”, Bria
will start but none of the user’s account credentials or account settings will be available, so Bria will not be
usable.
