12 Configuring Server Properties

Encryption of database data and configuration data, Multi-tenant functionality, background image access as well as other functions requires updating the bharosa_server.properties file.

12.1 Updating the bharosa_server.properties File

To modify the bharosa_server.properties file

1. Copy bharosa_server.properties.sample to bharosa_server.properties. The bharosa_server.properties.sample file is located under the oarm/WEB-INF/classes/ directory.

2. In bharosa_server.properties, update the appropriate values for the Adaptive Strong Authenticator images path.

3. Ensure that the database data encryption and configuration value encryption properties have been added.

   bharosa.cipher.encryption.algorithm.enum.DESede_config.keystorePassword=<base64 encoded keystore password>
   bharosa.cipher.encryption.algorithm.enum.DESede_config.aliasPassword=<based64 encoded password to the alias>
   

   bharosa.cipher.encryption.algorithm.enum.DESede_db.keystorePassword=<base64 encoded keystore password>
   bharosa.cipher.encryption.algorithm.enum.DESede_db.aliasPassword=<based64 encoded password to the alias>
   

   For more information, refer to Chapter 10, "Setting Up Encryption."

4. If you want the username to be in lowercase, set vcryptuser.loginid.lowercase to true.

5. Back up and secure the bharosa_server.properties file in case you should need to restore any customer specific customizations or upgrade to Adaptive Risk Manager software at a later date.

12.2 Sample Code

For your reference, sample code is provided below.

#this is to point to the shared image directory, both bharosa_client.properties and bharosa_server.properties
#should point to the same value
bharosa.image.dirlist=/bharosa_images/allpads/textpad/
