Configure CA EEM With NTLM Authentication

Configure the CA EEM with NTLM authentication for a logged in domain user to silently (SSO) log in to CA Open Space.

Follow these steps:

Ensure the following considerations:
- CA Open Space server and CA Service Catalog server must be in the same domain where you want to use the windows authentication. CA EEM server must be configured with Active Directory of the same domain.
- Active Directory users should be able to login to the client machine present in this domain.
Log in to the CA Open Space tenant control panel as a tenant administrator.
Example: http://<Company_Host_Name>:8686/group/control_panel

Note: To configure the CA EEM with NTLM authentication for a default tenant, login to the http://<CA_Open_Space_Server_Name>:8686/group/control_panel URL as the administrator.
Select Portal Settings, Authentication, EEM.
Configure CA EEM Authentication for the CA Open Space server.
Verify the CA EEM with NTLM authentication:
1. Ensure that CA SDM and CA Service Catalog data sources integrated with CA Open Space. For more information, see the Configure Data Sources topic.
2. Ensure that the integrated CA SDM and CA Service Catalog data sources are also authenticated with NTLM for the CA SDM details and CA Service Catalog widgets to appear on CA Open Space. For more information, see the respective product documentation.
3. Enter the CA Open Space URL.
Windows users should be able to log in without being asked for the credentials.

Note: To use the NTLM authentication on the Mozilla Firefox browser, complete the following steps:

Enter about:config on the Firefox browser.
Search for ntlm.
Enter the CA Open Space URL (that is to be authenticated with NTLM) and CA Service Catalog URL as the network.automatic-ntlm-auth-trusted-uris value, separated by comma.
