Abstract

Embodiments herein describe bypassing a step that would otherwise prompt a user to manually input credentials to access a traditional environment after establishing connection to a POSIX environment. In some embodiments, the credentials used to login to the POSIX compliant environment can be automatically inputted into a field that enables access to a traditional environment. In other embodiments, the use of archived credentials can be used once a connection to a POSIX compliant environment is established, providing access to a traditional environment. Additionally, a level of trust between the POSIX compliant environment and the traditional environment can be established enabling access to the traditional environment.
