Environment
Novell SecureLogin
NSL7.0.2
Startup script launches multiple applications
NSL7.0.2
Startup script launches multiple applications
Situation
Prompts for application credentials get mixed up on initial launch of startup script.
The first time the startup script runs and the apps are launched SecureLogin prompts users for application credentials for each application, as expected. The problem is that the apps launch quickly one after another and the NSL credential prompts get stacked on top of each other, causing confusion about which prompt goes with what application.

Resolution
Edit the startup script to launch the applications as shown below. This way applications will start one
after another, but will wait for enrollment for the previous application.
##-- Startup Script ------------------

Run c:\path\to\ABC.exe
Repeat
If -exists $Username(ABC.exe)
Run c:\path\to\DEF.exe
Break
EndIf

Repeat
If -exists $Username(DEF.exe)
Run c:\path\to\XYZ.exe
