Lesson 4: Test the authentication

UltraLite comes with a sample Windows client that automatically invokes the dbmlsync utility when the user issues a synchronization. You run the application against the CustDB consolidated database you started in the previous lesson.

 To start the sample application and test authentication
  1. Start the sample application.

    From the Start menu, choose Programs » SQL Anywhere 12 » UltraLite » Windows Sample Application.

  2. Enter an invalid employee ID and synchronize.

    In this application, the employee ID is also the MobiLink user name. If the user name does not begin with "128", your logic causes synchronization to fail. Enter a value of 50 for the employee ID and click OK.

    An error stating that the authenticate_user script returned 4000 appears in the MobiLink Server window.

    A SQLCODE -103 synchronization error indicating an invalid user ID or password appears in the UltraLite CustDB Demo window.
