LDAP - Authentication and Authorization

System

Hi there,

I'm pretty new to the CMS and am confronted with a peculiar(?) problem. We have user-id stored in an existing LDAP. For some maintenance reason we cannot add any more to the existing LDAP schema. My requirement is for authentication i have to configure the Interwoven to the existing LDAP through Siteminder and for authorization or role based access control i need to create a new database and store the groups and role there and configure interwoven to talk to that database.

Is the above scenario am attempting is possible. Also how the teamsite licensing works. Is it for every user i configure in Interwoven or the license is based on per CPU.

Thanks in advance
Visu

Can't help with the first question, but licencing is normally a matter of black magic.

To find out what llicencing deal you have you will have to dig out your contract with Interwoven.

Per CPU + per seat is common, but you can also have flat fee enterprise licencies, or something else negotiated with Interwoven.
