Modifying authentication aliases

You might need to modify existing authentication aliases.

Why and when to perform this task

Modify authentication aliases from the administrative console.

Steps for this task

  1. Access the J2EE Connector Architecture (J2C) authentication data entries panel.
    From the administrative console, expand Security, and click Global security. Under the Authentication heading, expand JAAS Configuration, and select J2C Authentication data.
    Note: You can also use this panel to add or delete authentication data.
  2. Select the authentication alias that you want to modify.

    The J2EE Connector Architecture (J2C) authentication data entries panel contains a list of authentication aliases, the user ID associated with this alias, and optionally a description of the alias. Click on the alias that you want to modify.

  3. Change the properties of the alias.

    On the configuration panel for the selected alias, you can modify either the alias name or the associated user ID and password. You can also modify the description of the authentication data entry.

  4. Confirm your changes.
    Click either OK or Apply. Return to the J2EE Connector Architecture (J2C) authentication data entries panel, and click Save to apply your changes to the master configuration.
    Note: For a Network Deployment installation, make sure that a file synchronize operation is performed to propagate the changes to other nodes.
