To Set Impersonation Options using machine.config

You need administrator access to perform this task.

User impersonation options are set in the .NET Framework's machine.config file. Impersonation options are set as key/value pairs using the add element in the file's MicroFocus.SEE section.

1. Make a backup copy of machine.config.

   The file is in %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\version\Config or %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\version\Config, where version is the .NET Framework version used by Enterprise Server for .NET.

   Use the file in Framework when running a 32-bit version of Windows, or the file in Framework64 when running on 64-bit Windows.

2. Open machine.config for editing.
3. If the MicroFocus.SEE section is not defined in the file, add a <section> element to the configSections section as follows.

   <!-- Added for Micro Focus SEE for .NET -->
   <section name="MicroFocus.SEE" 
                type="MicroFocus.SEE.Utils.GlobalConfigurationSection,
                MicroFocus.SEE.Utils,Version=4.0.0.0,
                Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=0412c5e0b2aaa8f0" />
   

4. At the end of the file, just before the closing tag, add the MicroFocus.SEE section.

   <!-- Added for Micro Focus SEE for .NET -->
   <MicroFocus.SEE>
   </MicroFocus.SEE>

5. Add your configurations inside the MicroFocus.SEE section as required.

   Use the following syntax to add a key.

   <add key="keyToAdd" value="keyValue" /> 

   For example, the following key enables user impersonation of logged on users.

   <MicroFocus.SEE>
       ...
       <add key=" Security.users.impersonateUsers" value="true" />
       ...
     </MicroFocus.SEE>

6. Save and close the file.
