can we configure SAP SSO AND LDAP SSO on the same BO Server?

[Former Member]

Hi,

Now a day we have SAP SSO to BO but we want to know if is possible to activate LDAP SSO and SAP SSO in the SAME BOE SERVER?

Actually LDAP works with portal and the portal log on SAP then it goes to BO reports but the requirement is that some users wants to see webi reports that comes up from an open document URL embbeded on a simple Excel, but the dont want to introduce their logon user and password plus they dont want to go to the portal.

Do you have some documentation to do this ?

Is this possible?

Thanks

Hi Ingo

I was reading BO Admin Guide and i found that if i want to configure LDAP with SiteMinder(SSO) i need to modify the next parameters in the web.xml.

Default

<param-name>authentication.default</param-name>

<param-value>secEnterprise</param-value>

• If we configure LDAP*

<param-name>authentication.default</param-name>

<param-value>secLDAP</param-value>

Actually we are using SAP SSO so i have configured like this

<param-name>authentication.default</param-name>

<param-value>secSAPR3</param-value>

What parameter we need if we want to use both authentications?

Im sorry for all the questions.

Hi,

if you want to combine SAP Authentication with LDAP and make one of them the "leading" authenitcation you will have to implement SNC.

Hi Ingo,

Do you know where i can find some documentation about SNC deployment?

Thanks

Hi,

yes you can have LDAP and SAP configured on the same system.

if you actually want to combine them you most likely will need a deployment with SNC.
