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.

Hi Shabeaut,
Yes, in this case if your users who are in different domain can are able to log in to SharePoint manually you can enable trust relation for all types

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,
Peter

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
Gregor

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

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.

Hi all,
I want to integrate Xcelsius with SAP data (Xcelsius should use data source as SAP data). First I had created a Function Module and using that FM I created Web Service. But when I tried to open SOAMANAGER transaction for that Web Service , the URL needed for integrating SAP data with Xcelsius is not coming (showing blank). So I could not able to connect that Web service with Xcelsius.
Can anyone please help me in this regard.. Any suggestion will be wellcomed..

HI,
which looks to me like an issue on the SAP Server side already so I would suggest you post the question into SOA area.

How to set custom HTTP header for single sign on

Currently we just begin to use an application called "etran". This application requires user name and password to login. Now, my assignment is to integrate etran application in our internal application. This means that somewhere in our internal application, there is a link leads to the etran application.
It is going to be single sign on, that means that once user logs into our internal application, when he/she clicks on the etran link, no sign on to etran is needed.
I consult with the technical people in etran. they said that our internal application needs to send a "login request" to etran via SSL with the user's information encoded in base 64 format. etran captures the HTTP header containing user authentication and authorization information, and parses the required information from the HTTP header.
My question is that how I set user information in HTTP header? From my understanding, once I am able to set the user information in HTTP header, it is in base 64 format?
Thanks in advance for your help.

You can invoke a HTTP request programmatically using java.net.URLConnection. You can set request headers using URLConnection#setRequestProperty(). Also see the API docs: [http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/net/URLConnection.html]. You only need to know the header field name where to set the Base64-encoded value in. You need to Base64-encode the value yourself.

Proper security structure for Single Sign on Server

We are all used to how we design security structure for vCenter Server if you have had an existing VMware environment prior to 5.1. Who should have administrative privileges in vCenter Server, what roles, permissions, and so on should be assigned to what users and groups - these questions have already been addressed in our current configuration.
Now Single Sign on introduces a significant new point of consideration for determining issues of access and authentication.
I'd like to get some ideas on how this should be handled. For example, should previous VMware administrators by definition become Single Sign on Administrators? Should the administrators of the Active Directory domain now start to get involved with the Single Sign on Server?
For example, Single Sign on now forces VMware administrators to configure things like:
-Password Complexity Policy for SSO
-Password Expiration for SSO
-Lockout Policy
We already probably have these things tightly controlled in AD and locked down with group policy, but you can't apply group policy directly to an SSO server and make it receive a GPO from Active Directory. (You can make the Windows OS that SSO is running on have a GPO applied, but it won't configure SSO itself, just the OS).
VMware admins are looking at a new set of questions relating to authentication and authorization. Someone has to have written something or will be writing something to help us get the big picture of what is changing with SSO if anything and how we need to look at SSO from a security design and best practices.
Should we just make existing vCenter Server admins SSO admins or do we need to take a step back and reconsider?

Hello,
Actually, yes. SSO is fairly robust in 5.5. It has a few limitations around email of expired passwords, but that is mainly because some people do not use them. I use SSO to provide the usernames and passwords for all my VMware vCenter and related product service accounts. I.e. an account for vdp, Horizon, vCops, Log Insight, etc. This is more about keeping systems segregated once more with no real need for AD for services. But AD via SSO is used by users.
Read the documentation, and determine how SSO fits into your current password policy and take a long hard look at your virtualization management environment. Is there a 1 service account per service talking directly to vCenter? If not, SSO can help you implement that. The key is to match its functionality to your security policy.

Ask the Experts: Single Sign-On with Cisco WebEx Meetings Server, Internet Reverse Proxy, and Enterprise License Manager Solutions

With Arun Kumar
Welcome to the Cisco Support Community Ask the Expert conversation. This is an opportunity to learn and ask questions about Single Sign-On (SSO) with Cisco WebEx Meetings Server (Cisco WMS), Internet Reverse Proxy (IRP), and Enterprise License Manager (ELM) solutions.
SSO standards such as Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) 2.0 provide secure mechanisms for passing credentials and related information between different websites that have their own authorization and authentication systems. SSO enables simplified user authentication and management.
IRP provides public access, enabling users to host or attend meetings from the Internet and mobile devices. Although IRP is optional, Cisco encourages its use because it provides a better user experience for your mobile workforce.
Example question topics include:
SSO profiles and SAML 2.0 Identity providers (IdPs) supported in Cisco WMS
Basic configuration of IdPs
Interaction between IdPs and Cisco WMS
Difference between the cloud client implementation and Cisco WMS
Meeting access behavior in a split-horizon network topology with SSO
How to enable public access to Cisco WMS
Cisco WMS ELM operations
Cisco WMS ELM compared to other unified communications ELM or standalone ELM and compatibility/inoperability between them

How to enable a partner application for Single Sign-On?

Can someone please advise me on how to enable my existing J2EE web application for the Oracle Single Sign-On?
My requirement is i want to provide the single sign-on authentication service to my J2EE web application. For this, I would like to make my application as a partner application similar like the OracleAS Portal.
I am using Oracle 10g ( OralceAS, Oracle Infra, OID ...)
I found the following service/APIs which Oracle provides. I am not sure which one is suitable for me.
1. mod_osso ( Static)
--- In this case, I have to make a entry in mod_osso.config file to protect the URL. should I have to register the URL again through single sign on admin page ("Administer Partner Application") after make a entry in config file?
2. mod_osso ( Dynamic directive)
-- in this case, I have to modify the code by providing the directives like 401, 499.. etc. So i don't prefer this as i don't want to touch my app.
--If I go with this option, should i have to register the URL with Single sign on server through SSO admin page ( as mentioned in the above step#1) ?
3. SSO SDK
- Since it was deprecated and need java coding, i am prefer this option.
-- however, if i go with this option, i will develop code by using SDK. in this case i need to register the URL in SSO server through admin page.. am i right?
Note:- OSSO server integrated with Active Directory for the authentication.
Thanks,
-Senthil

Flash File for Single Sign On

Hi,
[disclaimer]
I usually post in the ColdFusion forum so I am sorry if this
topic should be moved into a different Flash section.
[preface]
I am trying to implement a single sign on solution between
several sites that are located both within the same network and on
external hosting services. I've tried several things with
<iframe> and <img> tags to get a logged in environment
established on each server - to no avail.
[quesion]
Can SWF file be programmed to access a ColdFusion, ASP, or
php page via aboslute path that would at minimum set a cookie on
the computer for each of those sites?
[example]
I have one HTML page that has 5 <iframe> tags - each of
a partner site. The URLs called in the <iframe> do nothing
more than set a cookie of the UUID. I'd like a flash file that does
the same - eliminating frames.
Thnks in advance. Please let me know if more details are
needed. Please do not offer alternatives - the situation is
uniquely complex and I'd rather not go through all the why's and
why nots - that's been the last 6 months of my life. I really just
need to know if I can create a cookie from flash for multiple sites
without having the browser physcially having to go there.

Hi Kalyan,
Did you use SAML method for SSO??
Thanks
