Setting a System Preference for Developer Web Clients

If you are configuring LDAP authentication for the Siebel Developer Web Client, then you must set the SecThickClientExtAuthent.system preference to True, as described in this topic.

Setting the SecThickClientExtAuthent. parameter to True allows security adapter authentication for users who log in through the Siebel Developer Web Client. System preferences are enterprise-wide settings, however, the SecThickClientExtAuthent. system preference has no effect on security adapter authentication for users who log in through the Siebel Web Client.

Use the following procedure to specify a value for the SecThickClientExtAuthent. parameter.

To set the SecThickClientExtAuthent parameter

  1. Log in as an administrator to a Siebel employee application.

  2. Navigate to the Administration - Application screen, then the System Preferences view.

  3. In the System Preferences list, select the SecThickClientExtAuthent system preference.

  4. In the System Preference Value column, enter TRUE.

  5. Restart the Siebel Server.
