Why and when to perform this task
You can
achieve interoperability between C++ CORBA clients and WebSphere Version 5
using the z/SAS protocols. z/SAS supports many of hte same functions as CSIv2,
only z/SAS uses a propietary architecture. z/SAS supports three types of authentication:
Security authentication from non-Java based C++ client to enterprise beans. WebSphere Application Server supports security in the CORBA C++ client to access protected enterprise beans. If configured, C++ CORBA clients can access protected enterprise bean methods using client certificate to achieve mutual authentication on WebSphere Application Server Enterprise applications.
To support the C++ CORBA client in accessing protected
enterprise beans:
C++ security setting | Description |
---|---|
client_protocol_password | Specifies the password for the user ID. |
client_protocol_user | Specifies the user ID to be authenticated at the target server. |
security_sslKeyring | Specifies the name of the RACF keyring the client will use. The keyring must be defined under the user ID that is issuing the command to run the client. |
