Auto Login


Home Prev	Chapter 41. Logging in to Evergreen	Next

To use auto login, you will need to modify the Evergreen shortcut on your desktop. There are three new commands which are necessary for automatic login:

-ilsuser
-ilspassword
-ilshost

You will need all three to have your client successfully login. To enable automatic login we need to modify the Evergreen shortcut on your desktop. If your shortcut already has preset tab commands, then place the automatic login commands after those commands.

First, if your workstation will have multiple logins (circ, cat, admin) you need to copy a shortcut for each. There are a couple of ways to do this.
1. Right-mouse click and drag icon; upon release select Create Shortcut Here.
2. Right-mouse click icon, select Send to, and select Desktop (create shortcut).
Right-mouse click the new shortcut and select Properties.
Listed in the Target box you will see something like the following path surrounded by quotation marks: "C:\Program Files\Evergreen Staff Client MVLC\evergreen.exe"
Place your cursor after the ending quotation mark and enter a space after the last quotation mark.
1. After the space enter the login code for username followed by a space and the username -ilsuser circuser
2. Enter a space and then the login code for password followed by the password -ilspassword circpass
3. Finally, enter the login code for host followed by a space and the host address (this is the exact address which shows up in the Server Hostname box when you manually login to the client. -ilshost evergreen.mvlcstaff.org
  Note
  When you double-click on the new shortcut it may seem like nothing is happening, but it really is! It takes the program a few moments to digest the new requests and to do the login.
