==============

Our environment:

• we have several shared computers on the shop floor
• both “area supervisors” and “line workers” use these computers to access AX
• area supervisors and line workers have different AX security configurations
• the computers are logged into the network using a limited access generic network/domain account
• all area supervisors and line workers have user specific network/domain accounts they use for email

This blog post documents how to setup a Dynamics AX 20009 client computer to prompt a user for username/password prior to opening up the Dynamics AX 2009 client. It does not matter who logged into the computer. It has been tested with AX2009 SP1 client installed on XP SP3. AX users will not have shutdown Windows OS and log back into the computer to access Dynamics AX with their own account.

I assume the user computer has a working AX2009 client installed. In our environment we use a .axc configuration files hosted on a network share.

Step 1: Download and install ShellRunAs command from Microsoft’s SysInternals site.

• http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/s.../cc300361.aspx
• This will download a zip file. Uncompress the file and move the ShellRunas.exe file to c:\WINDOWS\System32. You can save it anywhere, but this is as good as anywhere.

Step 2: Create a shortcut on the client desktop

• right click on the desktop, select New –> Shortcut
• right click on the newly created shortcut and select Properties
• modify the target to something like the following. NOTE: The quotes in the config file parameter are escaped with a backslash
• C:\WINDOWS\system32\ShellRunas.exe "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\50\Client\Bin\Ax32.exe" \”\\\NETLOGON\AX2009\Config File\AX2009_TEST_Remote.axc\”
• rename the icon to something appropriate and test it out

It’s that simple.
