Tuning the Siebel Web Server Extension for All UNIX and Linux Platforms

You must tune the Siebel Web Server Extension (SWSE) to run Siebel Business Applications on UNIX platforms.

To tune the SWSE for UNIX platforms

1. In the SWSE installation directory, navigate to the bin subdirectory.
2. Using a text editor such as vi, open the eapps.cfg file for editing.
3. Set the appropriate anonymous user names and passwords as values for the AnonUserName and AnonPassword parameters.

   How you set these parameters depends on your user authentication strategy. When specifying passwords in the eapps.cfg file, you must take password encryption into account. For more information, see Siebel Security Guide.

4. Set GuestSessionTimeout to 60.

   NOTE:  This configuration is appropriate for application scenarios where users browse without logging in.

5. Restart the Web server for these changes to take effect.
