6.6.18.3.6: Specifying user IDs for the server and administrator with the Web console
Before enabling security, specify an ID and
password under which the application server will run:
- In the tree on the left side of the console, click Security -> Local OS Authentication to
display the authentication settings.
- Click the Local OS User Registry link.
- On the resulting panel, specify a valid Server ID and Server Password. The
user ID-password pair must be defined already in the user registry of the local operating
system, and must have "Act as Operating System" privileges (on Windows NT).
- Click OK.
You can use the same ID and password
to log in to the Web administrative console, or you can
set up a different ID and password.
Setting up another user ID for logging in to the Web console
To set it up so that you can log in to the administrative console using an ID and
password other than the server ID and password:
- Expand the tree on the left side of the console to display Nodes -> hostname
-> Enterprise Applications -> Server Administration Application.
- In the property sheet for the application, locate and click the Mapping Roles to Users
task to display the panel for mapping roles to users.
- For the Administrator role, specify values for the users, groups, and other settings. This
is where you can specify additional IDs other than the server ID.
- When finished changing the settings, click Next to display the confirmation page.
- When finished confirming the settings, click Finish. The modifications will be
saved to the EAR file for the application.
- Save your configuration.
- (Optional) To have the configuration take effect:
- Stop the server
- Start the server again.
