Authentication - How to auth first before displaying updates
Folks,
Here are couple of questions. I would appreciate if someone can answer..
1. The user should be able to see any updates/messages only if the user is authenticated. The update service shows the update and then when the user clicks on download, it prompts for authentication.
Can this be setup to authenticate first and then show any messages/updates
2. How can we do silent authentication?
Regards
- Sada

Here's one possible alternative:
You can make use of conditions. Set up a condition, which will be executed on the client. If the condition evaluates to false, the user will not see the update/message. You can put your authentication scheme there.
Please read the help on conditions at http://helpnet.macrovision.com/Robo/BIN/Robo.dll?tpc=%2Frobo%2Fprojects%2Finstallshieldlivinghelp%2FISLivingHelpMain2.htm%3FRINoLog28301%3DT&mgr=agm&wnd=InstallShieldLivingHelp%7CMain&agt=wsm&ctxid=
Another alternative is to use the GetAuthenticationParameters and Authenticate methods. However, you'll need to supply your own UI.
