Portal with LDAP

[Former Member]

Dear all,

System details: ECC 5.0, EP 6.0 SP17, ESS

1.I have already installed Portal with abap option. But now the requirement is to get authentication for portal ess users by LDAP, how to do it without installation or should i install it again.

2.LDAP server is rehat open server. sap schema is created in ldap. what steps should i have to do in ldap server?

3.Do i need to activate ldap (manually) in abap system also?

4.How these portal users will be mapped to employee id

if they are authenticated in portal because i think in transaction HRUSER it gives the user list which are stored in abap system, or the user id,s must be created in both abap and ldap.

Can anyone give me the solution.

Hi Imran,

If the users logon in EP and the ABAP user ID set in the MYSAPSSO2 cookie has to be the 'employeeid' attribute extracted from the LDAP user data, then you should check this help page link:

Hey

When it comes to mapping users to employee number, you can use transaction HRUSER or the infotype communication 0105.

Im not sure about the rest of the question, since i never used Portal with abap before.
