Security Guide for Siebel Business Applications > Security Adapter Authentication > Setting Up Security Adapter Authentication: A ScenarioThis section provides instructions to implement security adapter authentication, in this case for a single Siebel application. The implementation uses either the LDAP security adapter or the ADSI security adapter with one of the supported directories described in System Requirements and Supported Platforms on Siebel SupportWeb. Your implementation may include more than one Siebel application, and you may implement components and options that are not included here. These instructions are intended to allow you to confirm successful implementation of the security adapter with the directory. You should implement your authentication architecture in a development environment before deploying it in a production environment. You can repeat the appropriate instructions here to provide security adapter authentication for additional Siebel Business Applications. These instructions implement the following basic configuration:
For additional details about configuring security adapter authentication, see also Security Adapter Deployment Options. For information about special considerations to implementing user authentication, see User Authentication Issues. If you use a security adapter not provided by Siebel Systems, it must support the Siebel Security Adapter Software Developers Kit, which is described in Security Adapter SDK. You must adapt the applicable parts of the following implementation to your security adapter. The following installations must be completed before you set up this security adapter authentication environment:
NOTE: These instructions assume that you are experienced with administering the directory. That is, you can perform tasks such as creating and modifying user storage subdirectories, creating attributes, creating users, and providing privileges to users. Process of Implementing LDAP/ADSI AuthenticationYou must perform the following tasks to implement and test your LDAP/ADS directory with a Siebel-provided security adapter.
