Question
How To Cofigure Server based authentication (LDAP)
We are trying to configure LDAP through weblogic
we dint find any article regarding this in pega, the only reference we found is
https://pdn.pega.com/documents/authentication-in-pegarules-process-commander-v53 ,which is not working now can any one provide step by step to achive this .
We have setup Ldap in weblogic in security realms are trying to hit https://servername:port number/prweb/PRServletContainerAuth which is giving a popup but it not able to authenticate .
We have some basic questions like
How PRServletContainerAuth and LDAP Configuration are linked?
Does PRServletContainerAuth look for a kerberos ticket?
Hi Ravi,
LDAP authnetication is available in most of the PRPC versions, if you are looking for kerberos authentication it is available from Pega 7.2.2.
LDAP authentication can be configured using "Authentication Service" rule form in Pega application, which belongs to the SysAdmin rule category.
1. Create an authentication Service.
2. Choose "Custom" authentication.
3. Once you are done setting up LDAP server, provide those details in the "Service" tab.
4. Mapping tab can be used to map the attributes to pega specific properties like "pyUserIdentifier", which identifies an operator.
5. Timeout and ChallengeStream which is displayed when a timeout occurs can be configured in the "Custom" tab of Authentication Service ruleform.
6. The operator has to be an external operator, which will be used to login to Pega application, to configure this, open the Operator ruleform and check "External Authentication" in "Security" tab.
