LDAP Configuration Using Active Directory on AIX
Posted: Mon Mar 19, 2012 7:43 pm
Hi
I am using 8.7 Version of IIS. WAS , Engine , Metadata Tier all in same AIX 6.1 box. I am able to use the MS active directories (AD) as the authentication process. I am able to access Business Glossary , Metadata workbench, Fasttrack using LDAP authentication. The challenge , i am facing is with the Datastage. My user is created in Unix using LDAP registry. i am able to login to unix using the LDAP authentication but i am not able to login Datastage using the same authentication. Given all the IIS privilege to the AD group where my ID belongs. Looks like to me that IIS doesnt like the LDAP Authentication at Unix.
When i made the unix id to use the Local Registry ( ie create a local user account in Unix ) with same crendential , it is able to access Datastage.
Please let me know if this is how it works or i am missing some steps to use the LDAP authentication for Datastage. After reading the IBM docs i guess PAM is not required as all are in the same box.
Apprecaite your help.
Thanks
