Factiva

To use Factiva with EZproxy, use EZproxy 2.0g (2003-02-23) or later along with the following database configuration:

URL http://global.factiva.com/en/sess/login.asp?xsid=
DJ factiva.com
Find targetsite=http://
Replace targetsite=http://^A
Find name="landingPage" value="http://
Replace name="landingPage" value="http://^A
Find name="targetsite" value="http://
Replace name="targetsite" value="http://^A


substituting your own Factiva URL in the URL line. Some sites have found that only the http form of the URL will work, whereas others report that only the https form will work. If one does not work, try the other. Regardless, you must make certain that the form you use matches the form in your starting point URL.

If you do change your URL line to https, do NOT change the http in the Find and Replace lines. These Find and Replace lines should always contain http.

For Factiva to work, you must also follows the steps in SSL Configuration to enable the proxying of https pages as these are used during the Factiva login process.
