Enabling Security with the LDAP Directory
Once you have enabled security with your LDAP directory, you must provide the user ID and password required for security authentication on WebSphere Application Server when you perform certain administrative tasks with WebSphere Application Server.
For example, to stop the WebSphere Portal application server, you would issue this command:
stopServer WebSphere_Portal -user admin_userid -password
admin_password
Note: If you edit the
/u01/ibm/websphere/wp_profile/properties/soap.client.props and enable security and
add the userid/password, the userid and password will not be necessary when
starting/stopping portal.
