- Start WebSphere Process Server.
- Launch the administrative console. If global security
is not yet enabled you can use any user name to access the administrative
console.
- Enable global security.
Expand Security,
click Global security, and select the Enable
global security check box.
- Optional: Enable Java 2 security permission checking,
if required.
Select the Enforce Java 2 security check
box to enforce Java 2 security.
With Java 2 security enabled, an application
that requires more Java 2 security permissions than are granted in the default
policy might fail to run properly until the required permissions are granted
in either the app.policy file or the was.policy file of the application. AccessControl
exceptions are generated by applications that do not have all the required
permissions. For more information about Java 2 security, see the topic on
Configuring Java 2 security policy files in the WebSphere Application Server Information
Center.
- Set the authentication mechanism to Lightweight Third Party Authentication
(LTPA).
Click Lightweight Third Party Authentication
(LTPA) on the Active authentication mechanism list.
LTPA is the only authentication mechanism supported by WebSphere Process Server.
For more details on configuring LTPA as the authentication mechanism, see
the Configuring single signon topic in the WebSphere Application Server Information
Center.
- Enter a password to be used for LTPA key storage.
Expand Authentication
mechanisms, and select LTPA. In the Password field,
enter a password and type the same password in the Confirm password field.
This password is used for the LTPA key storage. Confirm your changes by clicking Apply.
