The password for each user is stored along with the user name in the ml_user table. You can provide initial passwords from Sybase Central, or with the mluser command line utility.
Sybase Central is a convenient way of adding individual users and passwords. The mluser utility is useful for batch additions.
If you create a user with no password, then MobiLink performs no user authentication for that user: they can connect and synchronize without supplying a password.
To provide an initial MobiLink password for a user (Sybase Central Admin mode)
Connect to the consolidated database from Sybase Central using the MobiLink plug-in.
Select Admin mode:
Choose Mode » Admin.
Open the Users folder.
Choose File » New » User.
The Create MobiLink User Wizard appears.
Follow the instructions in the wizard.
To provide initial MobiLink passwords (command line)
Create a file with a single user name and password on each line, separated by white space.
Open a command prompt and run the mluser command line utility. For example:
mluser -c "dsn=my_dsn" -f password-file |
In this command line, the -c option specifies an ODBC connection to the consolidated database. The -f option specifies the file containing the user names and passwords.
