Resetting User Password by calling an external Web Service

202 Views

Hi,<br>

<p>

We have an external Web Service, which handles Active Directory related activities. We would like to use this service to help users reset their passwords. We created a Portal Service from the external Web Service's WSDL. We have exposed the methods we require from this Web Service and are able to call these methods by creating Abstract Portal Components. We are currently testing the exposed methods via the Portal Component Starter and Viewer.

</p><p>

The current logon.par has a ResetPasswordPage. The corresponding form within the JSP is submitting data to the following string:

<br>

<i>inPortal?proxy.getAlias("RPWFS"):logonBean.getLogonURL(proxy, null)</i>

<br>

<p>

From what I can understand, the proper action URL will be returned by the method getAlias("RPWFS"). However, I am unable to find the definition of "RPWFS" in the PAR file.

</p>

<b>Questions:</b><br>

<li>

What does "RPWFS" stand for? Where is this defined?

</li><li>

Would it be possible to modify the ResetPassword JSP file in the logon.par so that upon data submission, the Portal Service is called?

</li><li>

Where can I find documentation on JSPDynPage and DynPage (and how to create and edit the above-mentioned items)?

</li><li>

Is there any documentation on the functions used in the logon.par? For example, what is IAccessToLogic? Where is this defined? What does it do? Is there a library where we can search for information on this kind of stuff (like MSDN for Microsoft and API docs at java.sun.com)?

</li>

<br>Thank You.
