A login shield that controls access to a computer or network system provides for the selection of context and application options. At login, the user has the option to identify a context, from which the login shield identifies an initial workspace or set of workspaces. The login shield prompts the user for identification information and compares the identification information to a set of authorized users. If a match is found, the login shield establishes the initial workspace and launches the selected applications. The user is also provided a means to create and define alternative contexts for selection at login. By allowing the user to define and select among alternative contexts at the start of the login process, the overhead associated with the login process can be minimized to that required for each particular user context. |
