LDAP-based authN for EMGC console

I am working on a EM11g POC and the customer is asking about authenticating users to the EM console via LDAP/ActiveDirectory.
The EUS option described in Section 2 of the OEM Admin Guide (Enterprise Manager Security | Enterprise Manager Authentication) -- http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11857_01/em.111/e16790/security3.htm#BABGAGIJ -- states that "Enterprise User Security (EUS) option enables you to create and store enterprise users and roles for the Oracle database in an LDAP-compliant directory server".
However, this is not the same as authenticating against an existing LDAP directory.
So... is there an option to configure EM console for LDAP-based auth? If not, is this something on the roadmap for 11gR2?
Thanks,
Roy

OK,
This configuration is for your EM Accounts
You can however manage all local database users with the same LDAP solution (OID)
If you want you can do a Single SIgn On configuration for EM as well.
There is a possibility to interface between OID and Active Directory, so you are actually able to do what your customer wants.

  • LDAP authentication issue for Admin Console 7.0U5

    Here is what I'm trying to do:
    In Unix LDAP Server, there are 2 identities already been created
    dn: cn=group1,     ou=group,ou=na,dc=XYZ,dc=com (gidNumber: 937)
    dn: uid=bai,     ou=People,ou=na,dc=XYZ,dc=com (gidNumber: 937)
    dn: cn=group1,ou=group,ou=na,dc=XYZ,dc=com+
    memberUid: user1+
    memberUid: bai+
    memberUid: user2+
    gidNumber: 937+
    objectClass: top+
    objectClass: posixgroup+
    objectClass: groupofuniquenames+
    dn: uid=bai,ou=People,ou=na,dc=XYZ,dc=com*
    loginShell: /bin/ksh*
    homeDirectory: /export/home/bai*
    gidNumber: 937*
    cn: Lastname, Firstname*
    sn:*
    uid: bai*
    uidNumber: 10091*
    objectClass: top*
    objectClass: inetOrgPerson*
    objectClass: posixAccount*
    objectClass: shadowaccount*
    objectClass: organizationalPerson*
    objectClass: person*
    ++shadowFlag: 0+
    User "bai" is a member of Group "group1" and will also be used as bind-dn (connection tested successfully)
    There are also other members (user1, user2) in the Group "group1".
    Goal: all individual users in "group1" will have access to Admin Console. (allow_group=group1)
    settings as follows
    --ldap-url=ldap://ldapsever.XYZ.com:389/dc=XYZ,dc=com*+
    --bind-dn=uid=bai,ou=People,ou=na,dc=XYZ,dc=com*+
    --bind-password=xxxx*+
    --group-search-filter=gidNumber*+
    --group-search-attr=cn*+
    --allow-group=group1*+
    --search-filter=uid*+
    It appears that I got authenticated by LDAP, please see messages from the ldap log

    Hi,
    Make sure that the directory server is installed first. If it is running
    ok, then you can try adding an admin user, please check the following

  • Can you add a group in LDAP as owners for a calendar?

    The documentation indicates that you can create a group calendar by adding
    owners to a calendar. The set_calprops
    WCAP command allows you to specify
    a list of owners for the calendar. However, I would like to know if there is
    a way to add a group in LDAP as owners for a calendar.
    <P>
    No, you cannot reference an LDAP group in this version of the iPlanet Calendar
    Server.

    Has this problem been resolved in Update 3 ?
    I just set up LDAP ACL with OpenLdap v 2.4.10 . Every thing work fine so far, except that I can't add a user or group by Admin Console ,
    It response this :
    {color:#ff0000}for host x.x.x.x trying to POST /admingui/admingui/newUserDialog, service-j2ee reports: Exception : ADMIN3132: Error while communicating to the LDAP server: ldap://127.0.0.1:389/dc=xxx,dc=xxx,dc=xxx
    {color}
    Though I can do this task in other tool . It will be good for SJSWS to support OpenLdap .

  • LDAP design question for multiple sites

    LDAP design question for multiple sites
    I'm planning to implement the Sun Java System Directory Server 5.2 2005Q1 for replacing the NIS.
    Currently we have 3 sites with different NIS domains.
    Since the NFS over the WAN connection is very unreliable, I would like to implement as follows:
    1. 3 LDAP servers + replica for each sites.
    2. Single username and password for every end user cross those 3 sites.
    3. Different auto_master, auto_home and auto_local maps for three sites. So when user login to different site, the password is the same but the home directory is different (local).
    So the questions are
    1. Should I need to have 3 domains for LDAP?
    2. If yes for question 1, then how can I keep the username password sync for three domains? If no for question 1, then what is the DIT (Directory Infrastructure Tree) or directory structure I should use?
    3. How to make auto map work on LDAP as well as mount local home directory?
    I really appreciate that some LDAP experta can light me up on this project.

    Thanks for your information.
    My current environment has 3 sites with 3 different NIS domainname: SiteA: A.com, SiteB:B.A.com, SiteC:C.A.com (A.com is our company domainname).
    So everytime I add a new user account and I need to create on three NIS domains separately. Also, the password is out of sync if user change the password on one site.
    I would like to migrate NIS to LDAP.
    I want to have single username and password for each user on 3 sites. However, the home directory is on local NFS filer.
    Say for userA, his home directory is /user/userA in passwd file/map. On location X, his home directory will mount FilerX:/vol/user/userA,
    On location Y, userA's home directory will mount FilerY:/vol/user/userA.
    So the mount drive is determined by auto_user map in NIS.
    In other words, there will be 3 different auto_user maps in 3 different LDAP servers.
    So userA login hostX in location X will mount home directory on local FilerX, and login hostY in location Y will mount home directory on local FilerY.
    But the username and password will be the same on three sites.
    That'd my goal.
    Some LDAP expert suggest me the MMR (Multiple-Master-Replication). But I still no quite sure how to do MMR.
    It would be appreciated if some LDAP guru can give me some guideline at start point.
    Best wishes

    We have a closely-held client base (i.e. not a
    million random yahoos off the internet), so we can
    secure a Java port between client and server and
    download a fairly significant client. The Java
    client is deployed with Sun's JRE (to control the
    environment) with the following configuration:
    2.6 MB JRE
    765 KB Forte.zip
    2.0 MB swingall.jar
    1.6 MB vbjtools.jar, vbjorb.jar
    100 KB application classes
    1) The Swing controls don't interoperate well
    with the AWT and Symantec widgets, especially in
    an internal frame. They paint slowly on top of
    each other, move jerkily, and paint before moving
    to the programmed coordinates so it looks silly.
    100% Swing controls play well with other Swing
    controls and are reasonably fast.
    2) We used Symantec Cafe 2.5a to paint the
    screens, and had some problems with the
    setLayout(null) on things like the Swing tab
    folder and split panel. Commenting out the line
    fixed it, but I'm hoping Cafe 3.0 will fix it (I
    have a person installing it but haven't gotten a
    report...)
    3) The initial search time to turn an IOR file
    into a reference is an annoying 10 seconds, and
    the first method call takes about 7 seconds, but
    after that is less than a tenth of a second.
    Haven't done any digging to find out why yet.
    4) If we were deploying this as an applet, we
    would probably use the IDL IIOP export--when using
    the Java Interoperability service, any method call
    seems to load the whole 765K across the
    line...class by class. Ugly. IDL just gets what
    it needs and is smaller.
    5) Also, if deploying as an applet, we wouldn't
    have to download the JRE or visibroker jar files,
    and would only download the swing and Forte IDL
    generated classes as needed, so it would be a much
    smaller footprint than the 7MB above. (Note:
    However, we would be at the mercy of the browser
    being used by client.) Different strokes for
    different folks...

    Sean,
    My worry is that Swing, while eloquently designed,
    represents an attempt to
    write a totally new display system which, at least
    in the case of my
    project, will run on top of Windows. I really like
    the Java (or a Java-like
    i.e. J++) language, but I feel safer using the
    native MS widgets. It does
    not seem that anyone on this forum has used Swing
    extensively and can
    testify to its stability and performance.

  • HTTP 500 Internal Server Error for BPEL Console

    Hi,
    I am facing a issue like "HTTP 500 Internal Server Error" while trying to access BPEL Console. We have not deployed any BPEL Portlets.
    when we face this issue we have to bounce the server for the console to come up.
    we are using SOA 10g (10.1.3.3.17).
    Database 11g.
    Please suggest how to trouble shoot the problem.
    Regards
    Surya

    We have established the reason for the HTTP 500 error. This is due to the fact the the oc4j_soa container is down.
    Now we need to understand why the oc4j_soa container is going down. You mention is goes down the same time every day. To me this sounds like there is some sort of background script running that, either crashes the instance or shuts it down, e.g. backup.
    Are you able to tell me what activity is happening during the time of the crash?
    Otherwise I really need to see the logs. I forget exactly where they are in 10g.
    something like
    {OracleHome}/bpel/domains/xxx/log {OracleHome}/j2ee/bpel/log {OracleHome}/opmn/logs
    there will be a file there with oc4j_soa in the name.
    cheers

  • How do I change the "home based" computer for my IPOD to a new laptop?

    How do I change the "home based" computer for my IPOD to a new laptop?  When I plug in y IPOD classic, I get a msg asking me to erase the IPOD.  What I'd like to do is make the laptop my "home base" vs. my desktop.  I have had no success when using icons from ITUNES. 

    You need to move the iTunes library from your home computer to your new laptop first.  From there you'll be able to continue syncing your iPod as before.  This iTunes support article covers the different methods available for moving your iTunes library from one PC to another.

  • Select query based LOV for tabular form attributes

    Hi HTMLDB Team,
    Congrats u all for the new release of HTMLDB in htmldb.oracle.com.
    I badly need a solution of the below problem.
    Say , i have table called user_col_comments now i want to display the table_name ,column_name and comments in a tabular form.I displayed only one row for the tabular form.Now i create a select query based LOV for attribute table_name where i got all table_name in drop down list.
    Point is that after selecting any data from drop down table list i want to get the corresponding fields to be populated in column_name attributes.How can i wrote the select query based LOV for the attibute column_name.
    I wrote it as 'select column_name d,column_name r from user_col_comments where table_name=:TABLE_NAME Its not working?
    Similarly i want same thing to display for comments after matching both table_name and column_name.
    Any solution to get rid of those problem will be highly appreciable...
    If u need my htmldb.oracle.com userid and password to solve the problem i will sure let u email it.
    Cheers,

  • Define Time-Based Fields for Cost Centers

    Dear All!
    I would like to know , how I'm abale to cahnge the setting
    of business area for Time-Based Field of Cost Centers to period
    Transaction is OKEG
    Would be thankful

    You can maintain master data for cost centers, cost elements, activity
    types, and business processes with time dependencies. You can make
    changes at any time for any given time interval. Data storage also takes
    place with a time reference. In this way, a master data record can have
    multiple database records storing different information.
    The smallest interval is one day. To ensure data consistency, you
    cannotchange each field daily. The timeframes in which you can change a
    field depend on the field functions, which are fixed by the SAP R/3
    System and cannot be changed. Master data maintenance includes an
    automatic check for each field's time-based consistency, resulting in
    individual time-based maintenance for each field.
