Sun OpenSSO Enterprise 8.0 Update 1 Release Notes

CR 6825011: Windows Desktop SSO Authentication fails with Login Exception on WebSphere Application Server 7.0

Workaround. If OpenSSO Enterprise 8.0 Update 1 is deployed on IBM WebSphere Application Server 7.0 on Windows:

  1. Prefix the Keytab File Name property of the Windows Desktop SSO authentication module instance with file:///. For example:

    file:///C:/keytabs/ssohost-4100-04.HTTP.keytab

  2. Set the new com.sun.identity.authentication.module.WindowsDesktopSSO.Krb5LoginModule property to com.ibm.security.auth.module.Krb5LoginModule.

Set this new property using ssoadm or in the OpenSSO Enterprise Admin Console under Configuration, Sites and Server, opensso-instance-name, and Advanced. Then, restart the WebSphere Application Server 7.0 instance for the value to take effect.
