How to Log In to SGD | Sun Microsystems 4.5 manual

The following table describes the user names and passwords you might require when using SGD.

User Name and Password	Description

SGD server	When you log in to SGD, you need to type a user name and
	password so that the SGD server knows who you are and can
	display your webtop. You do not need to type this password again
	until the next time you log in to SGD.
	You might also be able to log in to SGD anonymously, that is,
	without typing a user name and password.
Application servers	When you start an application, you might need to supply a
	password for the application server that runs it. The SGD server
	can remember these passwords, so you do not need to type them
	every time. Use the Save This Password option, if available, when
	you type your user name and password.
	If you want to use a different user name and password to run an
	application, you can force SGD to prompt you.
