You can configure LDAP authentication as a single authentication method. The steps are:
– copy the
${MUSE_HOME}/use/ice/profiles/ICELoginModuleLDAP.xml
file into the application which is to be configured, into the ${MUSE_HOME}/home/ApplicationID/profiles/ folder
, where replace ApplicationID with the exact application ID you wish to configure with LDAP authentication.
– configure the necessary Muse login modules for the application. Below is their list in the correct order along with the correct flag values:
– ICELoginModuleXML – required;
– ICELoginModuleParametersRemap – required;
– ICELoginModuleLDAP – requisite.
The configuration of the login modules is done through the Muse Console for Applications Administration as follows: select the desired application from the list of applications and click on the left menu – “Login Modules”; from this location manage the login modules: add, delete or edit them. The ICELoginModuleParametersRemap login module must have the following attributes and values: ldapUserPwd=”wwwAuthPwd” ldapUserID=”wwwAuthID” .
– Configure the properties of the ICELoginModuleLDAP login module:
– in the MCAA console select the desired application from the list of applications and click on the left menu – “Login Modules” and in the “Login Modules” panel click on the “Edit” link from next to the ICELoginModuleLDAP entry;
– in the editor page change the value for the “config” field from the default "${ICE_HOME}/profiles/ICELoginModuleLDAP.xml"
to
${MUSE_HOME}/home/ApplicationID/profiles/ICELoginModuleLDAP.xml
where replace ApplicationID with the exact application ID you wish to configure with LDAP authentication.
– click the “Update” button;
– click the “Edit Config File” and configure the elements specific to the LDAP server, such as LDAP-URL, BASE-DN…etc.
– Create a login page where the enduser will enter his/hers LDAP credentials to login into the application:
– create a backup copy of the ${MUSE_HOME}/web/www/logon/ApplicationID/index.html
file, where replace ApplicationID with the exact application ID you wish to configure with LDAP authentication.
– edit the ${MUSE_HOME}/web/www/logon/ApplicationID/index.html
file, locate the line:
with
User Name:
Password:
where replace the 2 ApplicationID occurrences with the exact application ID you wish to configure with LDAP authentication and ApplicationPassword with the right password.
– the access URL for authenticating with LDAP credentials in this application is:
http://MUSE_SERVER:MUSE_PORT/muse/logon/ApplicationID/
where replace ApplicationID with the exact application ID you wish to configure with LDAP authentication
