Configuring Windows Authentication in an N-Tier Deployment using the Configuration Files
You can configure Windows authentication in an n-tier deployment by adding netTcpBinding or wsHttpBinding to the configuration files.
The Cobra workstation installation (both for new installations and upgrades) deploys the Cobra.WinUI.exe.config and Cobra.api.exe config files from the Cobra n-tier server to user workstations. This deployment helps administrators enable Cobra support for the Microsoft Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) enhanced Windows authentication security settings.
The security changes to client configuration files must be applied to the Cobra server and deployed to each Cobra n-tier client before you can successfully connect to the server.
