About User Authentication in Siebel Analytics Applications

---

Authentication is separate from permission security. Siebel Analytics applications support three methods of authentication:

• Database authentication
• LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) server authentication

  Siebel Analytics Server supports LDAP in both Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and regular (non-SSL) modes. An LDAP server treats Siebel Analytics Server as a regular LDAP client.

• ADSI (Active Directory Service Interfaces) authentication

  Siebel Analytics Server supports ADSI only in regular (non-SSL) mode under both UNIX and Windows platforms.

The Siebel Analytics repository is preconfigured for database authentication.
