Discoverer Single sign on with other applications

Hello,
I am using Oracle Discoverer 10g (will be using the Discoverer Plus) as a reporting tool and had some doubts around SSO, Application Server and Oracle Internet Directory.
We have a .NET based front end application and we want to establish a Single Sign On between this and the Discoverer, so that when a user moves from the front end to Discoverer he doesnt have to go through the authentication process again. Has anybody implemented this before.. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Any help will be really valuable
Thanks and regards,
Sumit

Hi
No it does not mean that. It means that in order to use SSO and Discoverer you have to authenticate using the username and passwords as stored in the OID in the Infrastructure database.
You can set up links from Portal to third party applications but not vice versa if that other application has its own authentication mechanism.
Does this help?
Best wishes

  • Problem Using Single Sign on with Deployed Applications

    I have deployed some appliciations to a standalone OC4J. I am using Identity Management for authentication and it works unless I check the Single Sign on box here:
    OC4J
    Administration ->
    Security Provider->
    Enable SSO Authentication
    I receive this error:
    499 Oracle SSO
    Oracle SSO
    (all my products are version 10.1.1.3)
    I guess I should run ssoreg and osso1013. I can't find the latter.
    I appreciate any comment.

    Dear John,
    from my point of view, we have to seperate the problem in two parts:
    1.) The automatic logon to the struts application via SSO.
    2.) The session sharing via some J2EE mechanism.
    For the SSO (1.) You have to logged on to the portal - with a cookie on the clientside. This cookie can be used for SSO by Your Struts application as long as You share the same session (same browserinstance). This is not difficult examples are available.
    The sessionsharing between a J2EE aap - Struts and an iView is an intersting point. I hope I can get some time to try this out. One trick which is not too clever is to store the session data serialized in a database and privide the sessionid in the url which calls the iView or Struts. Sessionsharing between iViews is no problem as long as You use the HTTPSession.

  • How enabled Single Sign-On with a System SAP WAS ABAP (Run application BSP)

    Hi.
    I need to run any application BSP from a System SAP WAS ABAP, without entering SAP user and password. Using the windows authentication and without SAP Enterprise Portal.
    What authentication methods I have to apply for enabled Single Sign-On with a System SAP WAS ABAP?.
    And How can I enabled this method?.
    Best regards.
    Luis Gomez.

    Hi Ticiano,
    SAP WebAS ABAP supports a number of authenticaiton mechanisms. See
    [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/02/d4d53aa8a9324de10000000a114084/frameset.htm]
    A number of these authentication mechanisms can be combined with Windows authentication (e.g. SNC, client certificates, ...).
    The decision what mechanism fits best depends on critieria like
    - SAP server platform
    - security requirements
    - extensibility (should same authentication mechanism be used for future SAP environments, which will be E-SOA based)
    - authentication from outside company domain
    - Use of SAP security library (SAPcryptolib)
    You may want to look at the SAP Software Solution Partner Catalog, if you look for certified SSO solution vendors for SAP.
    Best regards,

  • How to integrate single sign on with third party system

    we are in the process of implementing istore application. we already have home grown isupport application to contact support personnal for any issues. Now we are wondering how do we integrate oracle applications single sign on with our third pary system. Is there any recommendation provided by oracle to achieve the same.

    We too are in the process of implementing iStore with SSO features.
    And if you believe me it seems to me as nightmare.
    In our scenerio we are intgrating this SSO with Third party access control too (AD and Siteminder). I would request you to please respond me on the following mail id , so we can share our experince which will help us in our implementation

  • Setting up BusinessObjects Enterprise 3.1 for Single Sign On with Xcelsius

    Hi all
    Does anyone have any documentation and/or whitepapers that documents the setting up BusinessObjects Enterprise 3.1 for Single Sign On with Xcelsius Dashboards (xcelsius accessing BusinessObjects universe data through QAAWS and Live Office..
    Thank you for your help.
    Kind regards,
    Dean

    Based on the replies in this thread I'm guessing that there is someone out there that has gotten SSO to work with Xcelsius? If so could you please post the details of how that was achieved?
    When we purchased Xcelsius we were under the impression that it supported SSO but have never been able to get it to work and finally had SAP tell us that Xcelsius did not support SSO.
    Our understanding is that in order to bypass a login for Xcelsius you have to use QaaWS as the datasource and hardcode an enterprise id and password.
    LiveOffice supports SSO but not when it's used as a datasource within Xcelsius.

  • How to single sign on with  webApplication with Basic Authenticated in IIS

    Dear Sir,
    Our server is EP6 SP14, we will link iview with BW URL which using basic authen in IIS. . Please kindly advise howto single sign on with  webApplication with Basic Authenticated in IIS
    Thank you and best regards,
    Vimol

    Are you sure the BW is using IIS? Most recent versions are using ABAP style authentication. What version are you running?
    You may want to investigate IISProxy - it's no longer supported, but it might help you out. It basically takes an SSO cookie and allows IIS to "know" who the user is.

  • Discussion on Blog: Single Sign On with External ID implemented in Ruby

    Hello,
    please use this Topic to discuss questions regarding the Blog <a href="/people/gregor.wolf3/blog/2006/09/30/single-sign-on-with-external-id-implemented-in-ruby">Single Sign On with External ID implemented in Ruby</a>.
    Regards

    Hi Gregor:
    As per your request, I am reposting my question in this forum..
    Your excellent blog Single Sign on with External ID Implemented in Ruby shows how you can generate a sso cookie with the external ID mapping with the X.509 certficate.
    In my scenario, the user has already logged into R/3 via SAPGUI (so no need for SNC here) and run an iView on the Portal - if I map an external ID in the table  VUSREXTID (type NT)  for each of my users then can I call the rfc SUSR_CHECK_LOGON_DATA by passing Auth_method = E and Auth_data = External ID and will this rfc return a SSO cookie?
    Thanks

  • Can i use Airplay with other applications different to iTunes on my Mac Pro?

    Hi,
    I bought a Mac Pro 13' Retina Display two weeks ago and today i bought a Bose SoundTouch 20 and i connected both to my home network by ethernet cord. when i try to use applications like iTunes to send the sound of a song from mac to bose it work perfect, but when i try to do the same with spottily (i downloaded the app for my mac) simply doesn't work and don't know why. Another issue is that either can't send the sound of the movies and videos from mac to bose (i already try this using this configuration: send by airplay the movie to apple tv and from apple tv send the sound to bose, all work perfect because all was connected with ethernet cord).
    So the question is, Anyone know why the Airplay function only work with iTunes and with other applications simply doesn't?

    AirPlay only works with iTunes for Mac OS, iOS devices, and Apple TV.
    Not third party (non Apple) apps such as Spotify
    If the Bose Sound Touch supports Bluetooth, you may be able to stream music to the Mac or Apple TV. That's for sound, not video.

  • MathScript Nugget #19: Sharing Data With Other Applications

    In MathScript Nugget #18, we looked at ways to transfer data between MathSript and the rest of LabVIEW. In today's nugget, we'll see some of the different ways that MathScript can share data with programs besides LabVIEW.
    The most common way to share data between programs is by reading and writing files. MathScript supports several file formats that are recognized by other programs. The ones we'll touch on in this nugget are MLV, MAT, CSV, TXT, TDM(S) and XLS.
    The easiest way to bring data into MathScript is with the 'load' function. The help topic for this function does a great job of explaining it. The load function will bring in a group of variables that have been saved to a file earlier. The most common formats that load supports are:
    MLV files created with MathScript save function
    MAT files created with  version 6.0 or earlier of The MathWorks, Inc. MATLAB® software
    TDM and TDMS binary measurement files created in LabVIEW or DIAdem
    The load and save functions are great for storing off a group of variables to be used again in a future session of MathScript. You can do the same thing using the Operate>>Load Data... and Operate>>Save Data... menu items in the MathScript Window. These support the same file formats as load and save.
    The best formats to use if you want to share data with other applications are TXT, CSV, and XLS. MathScript has special funcitons to read and write each of these formats. The functions, such as fread_csv and fwrite_xls, are all members of the support class.
    The last way to read and write data files with MathScript is to use a custom file format. MathScript supports common file operations like fread and fwrite. You can use these functions to create or import files of any binary or textual format.
    There's one last way to move data out of MathScript without using files. You can copy data from the MathScript Window or MathScript Probe as tab-delimited text to your OS clipboard. You can then paste this text to a text editor or spreadsheet program.
    Hopefully now you have an idea of the many ways to move data into and out of MathScript.

    TDM and TDMS are also excellent file formats to share your data with other applications. National Instrumenst offers free libraries and add-ins to access TDM and TDMS files with e.g. Excel, OpenOffice Calc or The MathWorks, Inc. MATLAB® software. Have a look at this page to

  • How can I communicate with other applications from my Java application?

    Hello,
    I need help about how can i communicate with other application(say textpad.exe/wordpad.exe/MS word.exe) from my Java program.
    More precisely, I need to know how i can get the current position of the cursor whether it is in any .txt/.doc files, then I may write some text in my java application and click a button and then my program will append the line(string) in that position of the file which is running under another appliction(Notepade.exe/MSword.exe).
    Please provide me some help.

    I may be wrong (and anyone, please correct me if so), but Java may not be the best tool for something such as this. I envision that you'd have to make some OS calls such as calls to the user32.dll, and while this can be done through the JNI, you'd still have to have a C or C++ program doing the dirty work.

  • Using AirTunes with other applications

    What I want to do is to stream the audio output from the 2 laptops in my house (MacBooks with Leopard) wirelessly to a hi-fi. I know an AirPort Express will do this with iTunes, but I don't think it will work with other applications, which is what I want.
    Am I right, and is there any cost-effective way to do what I want to do (Apple solution or not)?
    Thanks in advance.

  • When I'm using a browser (like Safari) in Yosemite, how can I shrink it and share my desktop with other applications?

    I have an iMac, and after installing Yosemite (OS 10.10), all my browsers (like Safari) no longer share the screen with other applications, like Word or even Calculator.  How can I shrink Safari (or any browser) and share my desktop with other applications?

    When I'm using any browser (at the moment, it's Safari), I am unable to resize the window.  The browser BECOMES my entire desktop.  And if I open another application, suddenly the browser vanishes to the right, so I can only see the other app.  AND my dock disappears into a solid black space below the screen, which I can penetrate with my curser (after dragging the curser back and forth above and below the black space until the dock eventually reappears.  But if I select any app in the browser to open, then Safari vanishes instantly to the right of the screen.  I've tried to resize Safari (and Firefox and Chrome) by moving the curser to the bottom right of the browser, but that old standby doesn't seem to work anymore.  The browser takes up all of the screen, except for a small portion of the top, where my curser can reveal Safari's old menus, and the bottom of the screen, which is entirely black until I can locate my dock by dunking the curser up and down in the black ooze.
    I really want the old convenience of my Mac, where several programs can open side by side, but Yosemite seems to have precluded that possibility.  What can I do?
