Gateway Name Server Authentication User Account Name

Specify the user name for the account, usually a database account, that you are using for Siebel Gateway Name Server authentication. For more information about this account and the associated requirements, see Requirements for Siebel Gateway Name Server Authentication.

NOTE:  The first time that you configure a Siebel Enterprise (before authentication settings have been propagated to the Siebel Gateway Name Server), the user account name and password fields have no effect.

Gateway Name Server Authentication User Account Password

Specify the password for the account that you are using for Siebel Gateway Name Server authentication.

Specify the host name of the computer on which the Siebel Gateway Name Server is installed. For more information, see Restrictions on Host Names for Siebel Gateway Name Server and Siebel Server.

Gateway Name Server TCP/IP Port

Specify the port number that the Siebel Gateway Name Server uses for connections from Siebel Server or other components. The default port number is 2320. Use the port number that you specified when you configured the Siebel Gateway Name Server.

Siebel Enterprise Name

Specify the name that you want for the Siebel Enterprise. For more information, see Restrictions on Names for Siebel Enterprise and Siebel Server.

Enterprise Security Authentication Profile

The options are:

• Database Authentication (default). Corresponds to SecAdptMode parameter value DB.
• Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) Authentication. Corresponds to SecAdptMode parameter value LDAP.
• Custom Security Authentication, using the Security SDK. Corresponds to SecAdptMode parameter value CUSTOM.
• Active Directory (ADSI) Authentication (Windows only). Corresponds to SecAdptMode parameter value ADSI.

Database authentication is enabled by default. After you configure a different security adapter, that adapter is not yet enabled for use.

If you enable a security adapter after configuring it, then manually set the parameter SecAdptMode using one of the listed values. For example, do so for an Application Object Manager component for which you are enabling a security adapter, such as the security adapter for LDAP.

NOTE:  It is strongly recommended that you keep database authentication enabled for the Siebel Enterprise. As applicable for your deployment, enable any non-database security adapter for individual servers or components only, using Server Manager.

For customers using Active Directory, it is generally recommended that you use the LDAP security adapter instead of the ADSI security adapter.

If, later in the same Configuration Wizard session, you select the option Propagate Authentication Settings to the Gateway Name Server, then the settings are also propagated for Siebel Gateway Name Server authentication. For more information, see Requirements for Siebel Gateway Name Server Authentication. For more information about all of the authentication options, see Siebel Security Guide.

Security Adapter Name (named subsystem)

In general, it is recommended that you accept the default security adapter name. The default name depends on the type of security adapter that you are configuring. Default names are as follows:

• DBSecAdpt
• LDAPSecAdpt
• CUSTOMSecAdpt
• ADSISecAdpt

If you enable a security adapter after configuring it, then manually set the parameter SecAdptName to the same name. For example, do so for an Application Object Manager component for which you are enabling a security adapter, such as the security adapter for LDAP. For more information about all of the authentication options, see Siebel Security Guide.
