What is a Siteminder's realm for?

When I configure Siteminder for SSO, I really dont know what is the realm for (or, what is its functionality
in SSO)?
Can somebody help give a test example which can illustrate a realm's role in SSO?
Thanks !!

Hi Ashley,
Realm: A domain which shares an authentication database and servers. There is a single name-space for principal name/instance pairs within a realm. A realm is also a logical collection of clients and servers registered in the database.
Big Picture: The concept of a Realm allows you to aggregate users from one or more LDAP tree of one user registry and expose them as a coherent user population to Portal.
Realms allow a flexible user management with various configuration options; for example, you can combine principals from one or more corporate LDAP tree. A realm must be mapped to a Portal to allow the realm's defined user population to login to the Portal.
Hope that helps.

  • How to set up different realms for each server ?

    I am using weblogic 6 sp1.I have a domain with several servers. i want to assoicate or use different custom security realm for each server.However -on weblogic console- there is no 'Target' tab in the Security node ,and no way to set up multiple Security nodes.How ca i do this (or can i)?

    Main reason why is this:
    Imagine situation I have 2 servers A and B both of them bellongs to domain SomeDomain.
    Server A is as WebServer and server B hosts all EJBs. And server A is outside
    firewall (does not have DB access). But i would like to use RDBMS realm so what
    to do in this situation. Place both servers in different domains and in server
    A install proxy realm for RDBS realm ?

    and it applies to all servers.
    Why do you want each server to have its
    own realm? If someone tries to log in,
    do you want WLS to automatically route
    them to a server who is capable of logging
    them in? I'm having trouble understanding
    why you want this feature.

    Using SiteMinder 5.5 on WebLogic 8.1 sp5
    When & if I set all my realms as protected then I am unable to startup my servers and get the folowing error:
    We are trying to setup (as in intergrate SiteMinder with Savvion) SiteMinder v2 with weblogic 8.1 sp 5. We have appropriately included the references to variours siteminder related jars as per Netegrity's ASA document. We aren't using any webserver, instead wewould be using launching page (which be a protected resource). The following is the installation, configuration, and testing information related to various siteminder components:
    SiteMinder Identity Asserter (IA) - installed, configured & tested successfully.
    SiteMinder Authentication Provider - installed, configured & test result -> Unsuccessful.
    SiteMinder Authorziation provider - installed, configured & test result -> Unsuccessful.
    Has anyone seen anything similar to the following? My guess on the above is that it looks like it is trying initialise siteminder stuff every time we start each of the servers(admin, ejb and portal). Since the initialisation happens for the 1st time) when the admin server is started, an error is thrown complaining about not being to initialise when we start either portal or ejb after that. If this is true then is there a way around this problem?
    The Admin Server starts fine. But when we try to start either of the ejb or portal server, we get the following error:

    but it just says it cannot repair due to another program being installed.
    I'd like to have a closer look at that error message please.
    Generate the error message again. While the error message box is open, hold down the Alt key and hit the PrtSc key. Paste the screenshot into an image file (using a program like Paint), and save the file.

  • Realm for human task

    In the BPELAdmin I have added a second domain named "hub". In is_config.xml, I have added another configuration with realName="hub". In jdeveloper, I can then deploy a bpel process that includes a human task to the "hub" domain.
    Using the BPELConsole, I can see in the new process in the hub domain "hub" and create a test instance of the process. All that is good. The problem comes when I log into the worklistapp. When I select the "hub" realm at login, I do NOT see my new task. When I select the "default" realm at login, the task is there.
    How can I specify the realm for the task?

    Thank you for the added information. I am still confused however. When I am using the workflow editor, I can select the Integration Server Connection and Realm Name just like you said. When finished I viewed the source. What I see is:
    <routingSlip xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/bpel/workflow/routingSlip">
    <globalConfiguration>
    <owner>talaveraa</owner>
    </globalConfiguration>
    <participants isAdhocRoutingSupported="false">
    <participant name="Assignee1">
    <resource isGroup="false" type="STATIC">talaveraa</resource>
    </participant>
    </participants>
    <notification includeTaskAttachments="false" actionable="false" secureNotifications="false">
    <action name="ASSIGN" recipient="ASSIGNEES"><![CDATA[concat(string('Task '), /task:task/task:title, string(' requires your ....'))]]></action>
    <action name="COMPLETE" recipient="CREATOR"><![CDATA[concat(string('Task '), /task:task/task:title, string(' requires your ....'))]]></action>
    <action name="ERROR" recipient="OWNER"><![CDATA[concat(string('Task '), /task:task/task:title, string(' requires your ....'))]]></action>
    </notification>
    </routingSlip>
    I have studied RoutingSlip.xsd. It does not appear to allow one to specify the realm. So I selected user "talaveraa" from the "hub" realm and deployed to the "hub" domain. Now to see an instance of the task in worklistapp, I have to log in to the "default" domain. How can I force this task to be routed only to users in the "hub" domain?

  • What, exactly, is a webdav realm?

    The web technologies admin document's glossary defines a WebDAV realm as "A region of a website, usually a folder or directory, that’s defined to provide access for WebDAV users and groups."
    This strikes me as a bit unclear, as a "region of a website" can be many things. Do they mean a location on a *web server* that holds files for a particular website hosted on the server?
    And in the context of the small lab network I administer, would I use one realm for every web service offered by the server? Or would I use different realms for each blog, wiki, group, etc?
    Thanks,
    Jon

    Hi Jon,
    generally, I think a Realm refers to an area within a website, as defined by some base portion of its URL, where access authorization is restricted. Usually, the simplest method to do this on Apache is with the .htaccess files. You define a Realm as the URL at which this authorization is enforced.
    At its most basic level, a "region of a website" might just be a directory, such as http://example.com/test-dir/. The web directory test-dir may map directly to a real filesystem location, such as /Library/WebServer/Document/test-dir/.
    Or a "region of a website" may instead map to a specific environmental context within an application. The URL components following the domain name may be a series of values that represent a certain state in the application. This can either be done by simply appending a query string of name=value pairs to the URL (like the URL for this post- there is no folder named ?threadID=2547419 on the disscussions.apple.com server). Or it can be more semantic, SEO friendly URLs like http://example.com/articles/2010/08/What-is-a-realm
    A specific website have have many Realms defined within itself. It is up to you, the admin, to decide when and where you need to create a Realm to restrict access or activity.
    WebDav is almost always configured inside a Realm because of the extra abilities the clients accessing the website may have: i.e. DELETE or PUT methods.
    If your "small lab network" is only accessed by the people in your small lab, and not be anonymous people out on the internet, then you could probably get by without anything too complicated. Maybe one Realm for the entire website.
    But if your wiki is used by some people, your blog is used by a different group and you don't what to share data or content between them, then yes, create a separate Realm for each area of content:
    create a Wiki-realm for /wiki
    create a blog-realm for /blog
    This will allow you to manage access to each content area separately. If you have Open Directory set up, you can configure your realms to use those user accounts so you don't have to create new username/passwords for each Realm.
    The documentation to do this is all pretty readily available from Apple.
    Does this answer your question?
    Cheers,
    Matt

  • Can't set up realm for PHP

    I have a web server that is hosting several SVN repositories. I need to set up realms to lock them down so that only specific users can access each repository. Using the server admin utility I was able to successfully create realms to lock down the SVN repos and the raw SVN browser. My problem is that we also have a websvn browser connected to these repos that uses PHP. Can anyone help me create realms to secure the websvn browser?

    There shouldn't be any difference setting up a realm for your PHP vs. your regular content.
    The Realm authentication takes place prior to the content request, so it doesn't matter what the request is for (e.g. .html, .php, .mov, or anything else), the realm authentication has to pass before the server will respond with the content.
    So you just need to setup a new realm that matches your websvn URI.

  • Custom Realm for SJSAS 9.x using JAAS documentation too vague

    Hello there,
    I am trying to implement a custom realm for a particular web application on my SJSAS 9.x server. So far I have been unsuccessful and receive the following message in my server.log:
    [#|2006-10-20T13:51:56.390-0300|INFO|sun-appserver-pe9.0|javax.enterprise.system.core.security|_ThreadID=11;_ThreadName=httpWorkerThread-8080-1;javious;|SEC5046: Audit: Authentication refused for [javious].|#]
    The documentation I have been using for reference is at:
    http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-3659/6n5s6m58k?a=view#beabs
    However, I have a number of questions.
    First of all, this section referenced by the URL above is identified as "Creating a custom realm". Then the second sentence of this section states "Note that client-side JAAS login modules are not suitable for use with the Application Server". Does this not mean that JAAS login modules are not suitable for use with SJSAS web applications since they are components of the Application Server? Is there a reason for providing information on creating a custom realm for this application server in which it is not suitable for? Why isn't it suitable for the application server? What if I want to implement my own realm for my web application so that I can maintain my application users separately in another application?
    Secondly, this section explains that I can create a custom realm simply by creating a custom JAAS login module and a custom realm class. It then goes on to explain how to construct these classes and what to include in them. Notably, the documentation states the following:
    The authenticateUser() method must end with the following sequence:
    String[] grpList;
    // populate grpList with the set of groups to which
    // _username belongs in this realm, if any
    return commitUserAuthentication(_username, _password,
      _currentRealm, grpList);Having looked at the API for authenticateUser I discovered that it is a void method, however the documentation states to return a value from "commitUserAuthentication(..). Also, my commitUserAuthentication method only excepts a single argument of type String[] representing a list of group names, therefore I am unable to supply the additional arguments as documented. This is confusing.
    Once finished reading the documentation, I am left hanging with hardly a clue as to what to do with these two new classes. Now having implemented a custom login module on Tomcat 5.x in earlier days, I did happen to have some experience to know to edit the security.properties, policy, and login.conf files. So anyhow from here I end up stumbling blindly through configuration of my domain1/login.conf and domain1/server.policy files. I also attempted to add my new realm within the admin console under security/realms and dropped my new jar file (with two classes) into the app server lib directory.
    All in all, this completely fails to work. I have even placed System.out.println statements in all of my implemented methods and none of this actually shows up in my server.log file. Why is this section so vague? Why isn't there a step-by-step example from start to finish of how to implement a simple custom realm in SJSAS9?
    Does anybody have any helpful suggestions?

    Well, once again, I'm going to have to provide my own answer.
    After much waiting and then deciding to invest much time researching documentation and tracking down information to assist in my solution, I have manage to find the golden egg for my own recipe of a solution.

    I have mange to get my custom realm to work with the additional configuration of my sun-application.xml for my ear file. Even though I only wanted to specify my custom realm for my web.xml file, it turns out that in addition to this, I had to also define it in my sun-application.xml file (manually in XML text mode - within Netbeans 5.5) as follows:
    <sun-application>
        <realm>mycustrealm</realm>

  • What is Verizon going to do for us?

    Obviously this phone has a lot of issues, everything from the phone not holding a connection, forced-closed apps, random lock-ups, reboots, etc.
    The Verizon Wireless web store seems to have a lot of these phones being sold as refurbished phones so I have to ask... is this phone having that many issues?  If that is the case, what is Verizon going to do for those of us that have bought this phone that has turned out to be quite a "lemon" in the eyes of the community?

    I ask the same. I have been a "valued" customer since 1998, but the last 3 phones have left me ready to try AT&T.
    The Blackberry Storm they sold me quickly failed, and the Verizon reps, I must say, were quick to admit it was a known problem and offer replacement. But the replacement we chose was the Samsung Fascinate.
    My Fascinate slowly became completely useless...it started about 5months in with frequent freeze ups and less than average battery life. But at the end I was not receiving 8 out of roughly every 10 calls...not getting texts...it lasted about 3 hours in standby after coming off the charger.
     I had called Verizon and driven to the store on more than 10 occasions. They kept telling me there were no known issues. They blamed it on everything from my charger, to an advanced task killer that had been on the phone for 8mos...installed the day I bought it by a Verizon employee! I got them in Oct. 2010, on a "buy one get one" deal. My son's was having many of the same issues.
    When I finally missed an emergent call (my mom was taken to the ER) I called demanding a new phone Suddenly, Verizon knew about every issue I was complaining about! The store manager went so far as to call them "useless junk". BUT... they offered us our choice of a Droid X2, Droid Incredible, OR....the "all new 4G Samsung Droid Charge" Touted by the rep as "amazing", "lightening fast", "LTE" and "an over $600 phone", my son and I decided to go with the Charge.
    My list is similar to others, and started immediately with the weird fuzzy white lines when I change screens, or especially if you take the phone away from your ear quickly and look at the screen. 4days after we got them, my son told me he didn't want it. He asked if we could please go back and get one of the Doid X models instead. 
    OK... a 16yr old techno guru who is already managing and creating websites for 2 companies in our area is going to give up the newest, latest "4G" technology for older "lower end" phones? PROBLEM. Apparently, his gives him an error message that all his videos and music (including videos taken with the phone and preloaded ringtones) are "not supported format" . It also forces closes apps constantly, freezes up, etc.
    Mine freezes as well. My son even took a video with his phone on my screen totally locked up. Couldn't evn move the little puzzle piece or turn the phone off! The touch screen is completely useless and if I don't take the battery out, I wont get my calls while its frozen. It also:
    -resets the screen brightness to the brightest setting
    -creates an echo so others cant understand me
    -dies so fast it's ridiculous! Charge to full, make 1 call (6min) and Im at 80% battery. I LIVE with a charger.
    -alarm function is unreliable
    etc...etc.
    Went to Verizon ONE WEEK after getting both phones and told them what was going on. They basically said "no known issues" and too bad. I said I did not think it was an isolated "lemon" thing, since mine had been shipped to me, my son's was from the store, and both were having major issues. I asked why we couldn't get one of the other models they had offered, and was told the "promotion" was over because they had "resolved all the issues with the Fascinate.
    THEN GIVE ME MY FASCINATE BACK.

    The template is a document in itself, it is not applied to an existing document whether it is a Pages document or a Word document converted to a Pages document.
    You would need to either copy and paste content, using existing styles, or apply the styles to the converted Word document.
    You can Import the Styles from an existing document and those imported Styles can be used to override the current document's styles:
    Menu > Format > Import Styles
    The process is simplified if the styles use the same names, otherwise you will need to delete the style you don't want and replace it with the one that you do want when asked, then the substitution is pretty straightforward.

  • I am a new mac user and I switch to mac due to the graphics that it brings. I do website in pc and I heard iweb is the best.NOW i heard that iweb will be discontinue. so what is the best application there for website using MAC OSX lion?

    I am a new mac user and I switch to mac due to the graphics that it brings. I do website in pc and I heard iweb is the best.NOW i heard that iweb will be discontinue. so what is the best application there for website using MAC OSX lion?

    It is now confirmed  that iWeb, and iDVD, has been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
    On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. However, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
    Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
    ◼ Password protection
    ◼ Blog and photo comments
    ◼ Blog search
    ◼ Hit counter
    ◼ MobileMe Gallery
    All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
    I found that if I published my site to a folder on my hard drive and then uploaded with a 3rd party FTP client subscriptions to slideshows and the RSS feed were broken.  If I published directly from iWeb to the FPT server those two features continued to work correctly.
    There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows.  Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.

    However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone.  How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
    It now appears that the iLife suite of applications offered on disc is now a discontinued product and the remaining supported iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on. However, the iLife 11 boxed version that is still available at the online Apple Store (Store button at the top of the page) and those still on the shelves of retailers will include iWeb and iDVD. Those two apps were listed in small, gray text on the iLife 11 box that I bought.
    Personally, if I didn't already have a copy I would purchase one to have it for reinstallation purposes if ever needed.

  • HT204149 What is the maximum resolution available for use with the Apple Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI adapter?

    What is the maximum resolution available for use with the Apple Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI adapter?

    Hey guys,
    I found out an answer by myself...
    The missing link : the MacBook Pro needs to be powered... as in you need to plug the charger in...
    In conclusion, you simply plug everything, turn on the MacBook Pro, close the lid, and there you go !

    Crucial Memory gives me this module - is that correct?

    Found this via Kingstons site - is this also correct?

    Would really appreciate some official clarification here.
    Many Thanks

    It must be PA3513U-1M2G. You must check if this module is compatible with your notebook model. I think so.
    Anyway I recommend you to buy high quality product like Kingston modules.
