Single sign-on environment for application server security
When you enable application server security, you can use
a single sign-on environment. This environment enables a user to provide
one name and password to access multiple applications.
LDAP and application security servers
The application server is configured to authenticate against
a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server user registry.
The system supports integration with Microsoft Active Directory or
IBM Tivoli Directory Server LDAP server. You can move LDAP server
data into product database tables. The application server that you
use determines which directory provides support.
LDAP data synchronization
Data synchronization keeps system data current with data
in the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory server.
Synchronized data moves only from the LDAP directory server to the
system.
