By default, Dynamic AI will use the login credentials supplied when the connection is created. This generally means that all users of that connection will log into the database with the same user name and password. If you want the user name and password to be user specific, use @ALIAS1 as the login name and @ALIAS2 as the passsword. Then, when creating users, assign the alias1 and alias2 values to match a server login/password combination that you want that user to use when connecting to that data source. You can also use @USERID as the login name to pass the user's Dynamic AI login name. You would still need to use alias1 or alias2 to hold the user specific password however.
Note, this means users will be restricted to seeing only views/tables that their login allows, and all server requests will be logged on the server with their specific user name and password.
