Windows Authentication JDBC

[Former Member]

All,

I'm pretty sure this is a stupid question and I realize the answer is pretty obvious but I have to double check these things because I got caught out last week on something else. So here goes:

We have SAP XI3.0 SP9 running on AIX. We have been asked to create an interface with a JDBC Receiver and the database as it is set up now only accepts "Windows Authentication" when logging in.

I'm fairly sure that because XI is running on AIX there is no way to get "Windows Authentication" but I have to check.

So, can anyone tell me if I have this right or wrong?

Thanks

I don't think so. No question could be Stupid.

For your case, JDBC receiver channel will hold the authentication details for database. This should be present on your database as well as Windows system

Hi,

in the JDBC receiver communication channel you created in XI you need to provide username and password for the database you want to connect to. These userdetails need to be setup on the WIN box and the database. That's all ;o)

Yeah I assumed that but like I said I was caught out on something else last week so thought I better double check.

Thanks
