FileNet P8 Workplace XT, Version 1.1.5       Application server:  WebLogic Application Server     

Configuring Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)

To enable communication between Content Engine and Workplace XT, you must configure the LDAP settings on the Workplace XT server to match the settings on the Content Engine server. You can create these settings with an Authentication Provider in WebLogic Server.

To configure Workplace XT:
  1. Refer to your Content Engine installation worksheet and the WebLogic Server Administration Console settings for Compatibility Security > Realms for Authentication Provider, users, and groups on your Content Engine.
  2. On the Workplace XT WebLogic Server, create a new Authentication Provider of the same type as the LDAP Authentication Provider on the Content Engine.
  3. Configure the new Authentication Provider to have the same Provider Specific LDAP settings as the Content Engine provider.
    • Group Base DN
    • User Name Attribute
    • Port
    • User Base DN
    • Principal
    • Credential
    • Confirm Credential
    • Host
    • User From Name Filter
    • Group From Name Filter
  4. For both the default and the new Authentication Provider, under Common Settings for DefaultAuthenticator, ensure that the Control Flag is set to SUFFICIENT.
  5. Save your changes.
  6. Restart the application server.
