Introduction
The phixflow-login.xml configuration file allows the operator to define different login form configurations with restricted login options e.g. Local only, Active Directory only, all options. The user can then choose the login for to be displayed by providing an extra parameter to the PhixFlow start URL, or accept the default.

- You have configured Local logins and Active Directory (or SAML / SIngle Sign-on) logins, and you want advanced users to see all login options but normal users to see only Active Directory or Single Sign-on.
- You want to enable SAML / Single Sign-on auto login. This logs you in automatically using your current logged-in Microsoft Windows credentials without displaying a login form, and cannot be mixed with other form options.
Configuration
If $webapp/WEB-INF/classes/phixflow-login.xml does not exist, create it by copying phixflow-login.xml.example.

Starting PhixFlow with a non-default login form
