Password File

If the realm service enables authentication and authorization, then you must configure credentials for ActiveSpaces processes such as tibdgnode, tibdgkeeper, tibdgproxy, and tibdgadmind.

Each service process authenticates itself to the realm service using credentials that it reads from an ASCII password file. Specify the name and location of that file using the client’s --user-password-file command-line parameter.

The password file consists of two lines. The first line contains the user name. The second line contains the password string. On all platforms (including Windows) the lines must be separated by the new line character \n.
