When a client requests authentication services, the following steps occur:
The client validates the login with LAN Manager. LAN Manager returns a credential, which contains security-relevant information.
The client sends the credential to Adaptive Server and informs Adaptive Server that it wants to establish a secure connection.
Adaptive Server authenticates the client’s credential with LAN Manager.
When the credential is valid, Adaptive Server establishes a secure connection between itself and the client.
