Step of 11: Configure your Host On-Demand session.

In this step, you will configure your Host On-Demand session to use Web Express Logon. At this point, you are still using the Deployment Wizard tool (continued from Step 8).

If you have already created your HTML file and now wish to configure it to use Web Express Logon, open the Host On-Demand desktop, right-click the session icon, and select Properties. Skip to Step B.

1. On the Host Sessions window, click Configure > Properties to configure your session to use Web Express Logon.
   
   
   
   
2. Under the Connection option on the left side of the window, click Express Logon. Select Yes to enable Express Logon and chose whether or not you want Host On-Demand to use the user's local operating system ID for authentication. Next, type the full URL of the credential mapper server, for example, https://server_name/junction/cm/CredMapper, where

• server_name is the name of the authentication server
• junction is the name of the junction (optional)
• cm is the credential mapper servlet space
• CredMapper is the servlet name
  
  
  
  Be sure that the servlet name matches the name in your XML file. For example, if you specify the servlet name in your host session as CredMapper, the code in your XML file should look like the following:
  
  <servlet>
<servlet-name>CredMapper</servlet-name>
<display-name>CredMapper</display-name>
<servlet-class>com.ibm.eNetwork.security.sso.cms.CredMapper</servlet-class>

  The servlet that resides at this URL processes the HTTPS request from the user, performs a lookup, and returns the user's credentials. The Host On-Demand client uses the obtained credentials to automate the login process.
  
  Click OK to return to the Host Sessions window.
