Implementing Sign on for SRM Server using LDAP

[Former Member]

Hi Guys.

I need to implement SSL sign on using LDAP Server.

1. Create the user and sign on with authentication through the LDAP server.

that means there will LDAP authentication first and then

it will logon to SRM (ITS server).

Please let us know if any one of you has done this

Pushkar,

Hi. We are intending on doing this through the portal.

If you want to do it directly in SRM then I think you will need to change the logon procedures in BBPSTART (See transaction SICF). I haven't tried it, but you could probably do this through 'L Alternative logon procedure'.

If your SAP database is on Unix and LDAP is on Windows you will probably need a Kerberos authentication. I have managed to read in the information from LDAP (See transaction LDAP), but not authenticate against it. Hence the portal solution.

There is a lot of information on SDN for user authentication (one Blog listed below), but at the end of the day it depends on you release and the technical infrastructure.

Good luck
