David,
You are correct. The proxy page is used for ressources that are restricted to connected users.
The main usage is to allow patrons to access resources available by providers using a HTTP Referer mechanism.
Note : This implementation doesn't include any password mechanism. Adding it would be possible. Borrowers attributes could be use to manage the username / passwords. For exemple, user accessing proxypage.pl?id=ebsco could look at ebscoUsername and ebscoPassword attributes.
Thanks for confirming, Eric :). I might take a look at adding that later down the track, depending if we have anyone needing it. We have a client or two who are looking at something along these lines, but nothing has been 100% decided yet. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
