Authentication Method Question

Question:

I have added a new authentication method to CA Single Sign-On. How can I add the same authentication method to the CA Single Sign-On Option?

Answer:

Assume that the new authentication method is Method25 with the symbolic name MyOwnMethodA. Do the following on each of the Provisioning Server and Provisioning Manager systems:

  1. Create a directory PS_HOME\Data\SSO.
  2. Create a file sso_gui.ini in this directory with the following configuration parameters:

    # User-defined authentication methods

    [AuthnMap]

    Method25=MyOwnMethodA

    # Put additional methods here, if necessary.

  3. Shut down the Provisioning Manager.
  4. Restart the Provisioning Manager. You should be able to find the new method on the Authentication tab.
