Adding a User Log-In Value

You can set additional values for the user log-in by editing the resource.properties file.

For example, to enable you to use a mail address (such as john.doe@sesta.com) to log in, you could add the following line to the resource.properties file:


loginAuth-searchBase=<$rootSuffix>
         servicepackage-cosdefbasedn = <$rootSuffix>
          loginAuth-idAttr-1=uid
          loginAuth-idAttr-2=mail

where <$rootSuffix> is the root suffix in your directory.

Note that you must add an increment to the loginAuth-idAttr property for each new value. In this example, a second value is added, so you add -2 to loginAuth-idAttr.

You can add multiple instances of the loginAuth-idAttr property:


          loginAuth-idAttr-1=uid 
            loginAuth-idAttr-2=mail 
            | 
            loginAuth-idAttr-n=<login-in value>
