Belatedly,
University of Lincoln does the same thing (login details stored on
secure Intranet page, one for each resource).
We also change the password once every semester.
Regards,
Paul

Hi:
Same thing here at MMU: users are prompted both on-campus and off to
login with their network account and then are able to view the
individual username/password for the individual resource.
Best wishes,
Mary

Hi,
We do the same thing, but users are prompted for their network login
even if they are on campus.

Hi Sarah,
We have a secure webpage which lists all of our non-Athens/Shibboleth
usernames and passwords.
If users are on-site they can see the webpage automatically, if however
they are off-campus they are required to authenticate with their network
login details before the page will display.
I would be interested to hear if anyone has a better way of doing this.
Kind regards
Sarah

Subject: [lis-e-resources] Dealing with individual usernames and
passwords
Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone could shed any light on how you deal with
individual usernames and passwords, i.e. credentials for resources that
don't use Athens/Shibboleth. We don't have many to worry about, and I
won't reveal to the list how we currently do things, but information on
what others do would be much appreciated. Feel free to be as technical
as you like: our IT folk don't quite get what I'm driving at...
Thanks in advance!
Best wishes,
Sarah
