ILM 2 Functions Explained

Paolo is correct in pointing out that the numbers I calculated for masks are wrong. I did 32-bit numbers and tested it back on the 32-bit version of the ILM 2 Beta 3 VM. The calcs should be done using 64-bit as explained here: Using FIM to enable or disable accounts in Active Directory (http://social.

ILM 2 Functions Explained

January 6, 2009

Function Name Parameters David’s Description Example Example Explanation BitAnd mask Type: Integer flag Type: Integer BitAnd is a bitwise operation anding mask and flag.

This config setting is leftover from the early days of the product when we included Captcha support for AuthN. Setting this to true meant that users would go through a Captcha gate during AuthN, much like I had to do when submitting a comment.
