If your WebSphere® run-time environment has global security
enabled, you need to communicate the authentication settings from your development
environment to the run-time server. On the workbench, you need to specify
that security is enabled on the run-time environment, and provide the username
and password to the secured server.
Prerequisites:- The WebSphere run-time
environment is secured. For information on configuring global security on WebSphere Application
Server v6.0, see Configuring global security
To specify the authentication settings to a secure local or remote WebSphere Application
Server v6.0:
- In the Servers view, double-click your WebSphere Application Server v6.0.
The server editor opens.
- Click the Overview tab at the bottom of
the editor.
- Expand the Security section.
- Select the Security is enabled on this server check
box. If this check box is not enabled, all other security settings
are ignored. For more information about the WebSphere security feature, see the WebSphere Application
Server documentation.
- In the User ID field and Password fields,
specify the user name and password for the current active authentication settings
defined in the server configuration.
The specified user must have the following
permissions: Log on as service and Act as
part of the operating system.
The specified user must be logged on as root.
To test this setting,
start the server. In the Console view find the message Security
enabled true which indicates security should be enabled.
Note: When enabling security for a server, do not give it a user ID
that has the same name as the machine where WebSphere Application Server is installed.
Otherwise, the server may fail to start.
