Siebel Security Guide > Changing and Managing Passwords > About Default AccountsThe Siebel installation process and the seed data provided with Siebel Business Applications create several default accounts. These accounts are used to manage and maintain your Siebel implementation. You assign passwords to these accounts when they are created. However, to safeguard the security of your implementation, change the passwords for these accounts regularly or delete any accounts you do not require. Database AccountsThe following database accounts are created during the Siebel installation process. If you are using an Oracle or Microsoft SQL Server database, then these accounts are created when you run the grantusr.sql script. If you are using a DB2 database, then the database administrator manually creates these accounts. You must ensure these accounts have been created in the RDBMS and you must assign passwords to these accounts before you can configure the Siebel database:
For information on creating and assigning passwords to the SADMIN, database table owner, and LDAPUSER accounts, see Siebel Installation Guide for the operating system you are using. For information on changing and managing the passwords for the SADMIN and database table owner accounts, see the following topics:
For additional information on the LDAPUSER account, see About Creating a Database Login for Externally Authenticated Users. Siebel User AccountsThe following Siebel application user account records are provided as seed data during the Siebel installation process. These user accounts are not installed with default passwords and their use is optional:
You can use a seed guest account as the Siebel user account for the anonymous user. To use a seed guest account, you must set the following parameters, either when configuring the SWSE logical profile (recommended), or by editing the eapps.cfg file manually:
For information on defining the anonymous user when you configure the SWSE logical profile, see Siebel Installation Guide for the operating system you are using. For additional information on configuring the anonymous user, see Configuring the Anonymous User. |
