Help needed for Installing Active Directory for SSO

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

In our company we have a requirement to install Active Directory in order to implement SSO on our SAP solution along with other Microsoft applications.

Can anyone provide me a guide, how to achieve this?

It would be better if someone provide the list of SAP Notes that may be helpful.

Thanks!!!

Hi Chris,

Microsoft Technet and MSDN are two best place where you can get guide to install Active Directory.

There is no special installtion procedure specific to SAP. Installtion would be as per Microsoft. Just you need to connect your SAP and do some configuration change on SAP side. Althought the links and Notes provided by Abdul are quite helpful.

SAP has a set of s/w known as SAP Netweaver Identity Management. Also there are some third party tools like DirectControl & Identity Management from Quest Software using which you can implement SSO on SAP.

Active Directory is the basis of every Windows Domain.

If you have a created a Windows Domain you have Active Directory.

All Account information about Domain Members (computers), domain user accounts and domain groups are stored in the active directory (of the domain).

hope this helps.
