Configure LDAP as a WebSphere User Registry
In a typical deployment, WebSphere and the Policy Server are configured to use the same LDAP user registry.
Note: If you are not configuring WebSphere and the Policy Server to use the same LDAP user registry (typically because WebSphere is already configured with a custom user registry), ensure that the custom registry is properly configured (see the WebSphere documentation for information) and configure user mapping.
To configure a Policy Server LDAP user directory as a WebSphere user registry
- If necessary, start the WebSphere Server and the WebSphere Integrated Solutions Console.
- In the navigation tree, select Security, Secure administration, applications, and infrastructure.
- In the User account repository section, select Standalone LDAP Registry from the Available Realm Definitions drop-down menu.
- Click Apply to save your changes.
- Click Configure.
- Under Server user identity, enter the select the Server identity that is stored in repository option and type the identity and password of a user account that will be used to run the application server for security purposes in the corresponding fields.

- Depending on the WebSphere configuration, check Reuse Connection and Ignore case for authorization.
