Authentication options
FileNet
Web Services
and Open Client support the same authentication methods: default logon, unified
logon, and LDAP logon. For details and procedures related to authentication:
- See the topic "Authentication options" in the FileNet
Web Services
Administrator's Help.
- See the topic "About Authentication" in the IIS 5.0\6.0 Help.
- See the topic "Configuring unified logon" in the Process Engine Administration Help for configuring unified logon using Process Engine.
To logon in any of the libraries in Open Client using unified logon, you need to perform following additional steps:
- Open machine.config file from <OS install drive>:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\CONFIG folder in any text editor.
- Search for <processModel tag and modify the value of userName attribute from "machine" to "SYSTEM".
- Save the machine.config file.
- Click Start ->Run.
- Type iisreset /restart in the Run dialog box and click OK.
- Open <OS install drive>:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\Temporary ASP.NET Files folder.
Note: The Temporary ASP.NET Files folder includes a folder with the same name as of the Open Client virtual directory.
- Delete the folder named with your virtual directory.
- Open <OS install drive>:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322 folder.
- Select and right click Temporary ASP.NET Files and select Properties form shortcut menu.
- From the Security tab add the domain user(s) for which unified logon needs to be enabled.
Note: Skipping this step might lead to “Access denied…” error.
- For each added user, make sure that all check boxes except Full Control under Allow column are selected.
- Click Apply and OK.
