Hi ,
I want to enable Single sign on functionality with Content Server 10.
The SiteMinder installation is already providing the SM_USER HTTP header to Livelink.
I verified by checking ?func=admin.testargs that the HTTP_SM_USER is there (the HTTP_ prefix is added by Livelink).
However, livelink is not using it and still shows me the login screen.
I already configured "Directory services Integration" to use the environment variable HTTP_SM_USER but it does not work. I also tried setting the variable to SM_USER only but still to no avail. I also set "Username case sensitivity" to "lowercase" and ensured that the login ID is always lowercase.
There are three options available on the admin page:
1) "Web server authentication" which allows me to use HTTP_SM_USER.
2) "Content server authentication" which presumably is the internal livelink auth method.
3) "OTDS Authentication" , which authenticates using the OpenText directory services server.
I enabled (1) and chose (2) between (2) and (3).
More details .
I enabled "Detailed thread logging" on Content Server.
The thread log file shows that HTTP_SM_USER is received correctly. But it does not show any error between the "request received" and "response sent" events.
For the "username format style" option, I tried using "username" and "NT style domain/username" for HTTP_SM_USER and just SM_USER. But all does not work.
Any idea would be much appreciated. This is urgent, please get back to me asap.
Thank you,
