Orion 9.1 sp1 question

--Automatic login configured using a DirectLink account now works correctly when using Windows Active Directory (AD) authentication.

Can I get more info on this and how to get it working?

Here's the scenario behind that bug:

• You have Integrated Windows Authentication set in IIS
• You have two Windows users - call them Domain\A and Domain\B.
• In Orion, you have two accounts defined: Domain\A and DirectLink.
• A and B receive an email with a link to an Orion report or something.
• A clicks the link, is automatically logged in as Domain\A, and sees the report.
• B clicks the link and should be automatically logged in as DirectLink. The bug caused us to skip the DirectLink check in this case. So B just gets the login screen.

With the fix in SP1, now B will be correctly logged in as DirectLink.

If your setup doesn't look like this (Integrated Windows Authentication and an Orion DirectLink account), this bugfix doesn't apply to you.
