Setting Description<br />

General settings<br />

Homepage Server The server that contains the home page that you want to open in the<br />

browser when the user logs in.<br />

The home page URL is:<br />

http://mid<strong>Tier</strong>Server/contextPath/home<br />

The home page server must already in the list of AR <strong>System</strong> servers on the<br />

AR Server Settings page. For information, see “AR Server settings” on<br />

page 26.<br />

The mid tier searches this server for the designated or default home page.<br />

This server is used globally if you have not selected a home page server in<br />

the AR <strong>System</strong> User Preference form. A home page server specified in the<br />

AR <strong>System</strong> User Preferences form takes precedence over the server set<br />

here.<br />

The form used for the home page has the following precedence on a<br />

specific server:<br />

1 A form designated in the AR <strong>System</strong> User Preference form.<br />

2 A default home page designated in the AR <strong>System</strong> Administration:<br />

Server Information form.<br />

3 The default home page installed with AR <strong>System</strong>.<br />

For more information, see the Configuration Guide, “Home Page tab,”<br />

page 104.<br />

Authentication Server The server that the mid tier uses to authenticate the user.<br />

If an authentication server is specified, the mid tier authenticates with the<br />

specified server only. The server specified here must already be in the list<br />

of AR <strong>System</strong> servers on the AR Server Settings page. For more<br />

information, see “AR Server settings” on page 26.<br />

If an authentication server is not specified, the mid tier behaves as follows:<br />

1 Logs the user in with the preference server, if one is specified.<br />

2 If there is no preference server, logs the user in to the first server listed<br />

in the AR Server list.<br />

3 If that login is not successful, logs the user in to the next server on the<br />

list. (A guest login is considered a successful login.)<br />

Prefer Standard/Windows Views One of the settings evaluated when the system is progressing through the<br />

view selection algorithm; it indicates whether you want a standard view<br />

or a web view to be the default for the view type selection.<br />

If no view is selected and the check box is:<br />

Selected—The browser displays the standard view of the form.<br />

Cleared (default)—The browser displays the web view of the form, if<br />

one is available. If no web view is available, the standard view is<br />

displayed.<br />

For more information, see<br />

“How a view is selected” on page 89<br />

Form and Application Objects Guide, “How a form view is selected for the<br />

user,” page 394<br />
