Configuring a logon and logoff script

You need to create a new logon and logoff script, or modify an existing one, to call the EUM Login agent (ScEumLoginAgent.exe). The EUM Login Agent file should be placed in an area on the network which is accessible to all users. The following parameters can be used in the logon script:

Note: A logoff script is not required for NT domains.

/LOGOUT - This is used if the agent is called by a log off script. If this parameter is not used, the agent will assume it is a logon script.

/NETWARE - This command line parameter is used in a Netware environment. Use this in the login script to return the Netware user name to the EUM Login Agent. This will ensure that the default Netware port (61696) is loaded from the EumLogin.ini file. If this parameter is not specified, the Windows username will be returned by default to the EUM Logon Agent.

/NOCONT - This is used to run the agent in non-continuous mode. The agent will send the user name details once to the server(s) and then terminate. If this parameter is not used, the agent will run in continuous mode.

/TRACEMODE - Use this command line parameter if you are experiencing problems with the agent. Trace messages will be stored in a log file called EumLoginTrace.log. This file will be stored in the logged on user’s temporary folder. The location of this folder is determined by the following:

The path specified by the TMP environment variable.

The path specified by the TEMP environment variable.

The path specified by the %USERPROFILE% environment variable.

The Windows directory.

Add an Exception to the Windows Firewall

The Windows Firewall will prevent the ScEumLoginAgent application from sending traffic to the network. To allow the EUM Login Agent to function requires an Active Directory group policy to be created or updated to add the traffic from the application as an exception to the firewall. For more details on these options consult our Knowledge Base article 1775.
