MORE INFORMATION ================ Passport methods that generated URLs for the Login server (such as LogoTag and AuthURL) have been superseded by newer APIs: LogoTag2, LoginUser and AuthURL2. (The older methods are still accessible but are being deprecated.) For more information, see the following Passport Software Development Kit (SDK) Web site: http://www.passport.com/sdkdocuments/sdk14/ Calls to LogoTag should be made instead to the LogoTag2 method. For more information, see the following Passport Software Development Kit (SDK) Web site: LogoTag2 http://www.passport.com/sdkdocuments/sdk14/reference/scriptreference/ifaces/ipassportmanager2/logotag2.htm The syntax and signature for LogoTag2 are the same as for LogoTag. The only change that must be made to existing implementations is to change the method name in the call. Calls to AuthURL should be made instead to the AuthURL2 method. For more information, see the following Passport SDK Web site: AuthURL2 http://www.passport.com/sdkdocuments/sdk14/Reference/scriptreference/ifaces/ipassportmanager2/authurl2.htm The syntax and signature for AuthURL2 are the same as for AuthURL. The only change that must be made to existing implementations is to change the method name in the call.

The LoginUser method supports Passport-aware client applications and the credentials manager as used in the Windows XP operating system.
