Before you enable Windows user
authentication for a server, you must set up users. You can set up
a user by associating the user with a distinguished name (DN). You
can also set up users in batches by running DXL scripts.
Before you begin
You must have a user name that is associated with a database manager or a user who can
create users. The user identifier key that is used in this task is the full distinguished name (DN)
that identifies the user in a directory service, such as Microsoft Active Directory. For example,
the DN for
user1 in the
example.com domain might be
CN=user1,CN=Users,DC=example,DC=com.
About this task
This task is the first step in the process to set up users
for Windows user authentication.
Procedure
- Log on to Rational® DOORS® as a database manager or
a custom user who can create users.
- In the database explorer, click to see a list of users.
- On the Users tab, select the user
and click Edit.
- On the Keys tab, click Add.
- Enter the user identifier key. You can enter
more than one key for a user so that more than one certificate can
be used to log on to the same account. Similarly, you can enter the
same key for more than one user. For example, you might want one user
to have more than one account with different access rights.
- Click OK.
