Getting Started<br />

Now that you have installed <strong>Ektron</strong> <strong>CMS400.NET</strong>, what’s next?<br />

This chapter explains several resources supplied by <strong>Ektron</strong> to help<br />

get your <strong>Ektron</strong> <strong>CMS400.NET</strong> Web site up and running.<br />

Logging Into an <strong>Ektron</strong> <strong>CMS400.NET</strong> Web Site<br />

Note<br />

See “Logging In and Out” in the <strong>Ektron</strong> <strong>CMS400.NET</strong> User <strong>Manual</strong>.<br />

If needed, you can adjust the width of the login screen. This may be necessary if<br />

you use Active Directory and have long database names. Use the<br />

ek_LoginScreenWidth element of the web.config file to adjust the width.<br />

Making Passwords Case Sensitive<br />

By default, passwords are case insensitive. So for example, if the<br />

password is TOKEN and the user enters token, the signon is<br />

successful.<br />

If you want to make passwords case sensitive, change the value of<br />

the ek_passwordCaseSensitive element of the web.config file from<br />

false to true. (The web.config file is located in your site’s root<br />

directory.)<br />

If you do, and the password is TOKEN and the user enters token,<br />

the signon is unsuccessful. The user would have to enter TOKEN<br />

to successfully sign on.<br />

Restricting Login Attempts<br />

<strong>Ektron</strong> <strong>CMS400.NET</strong> has a login security feature that, by default,<br />

locks out a user after five unsuccessful attempts to log in by a user<br />
