Directory
This task needs to be performed on the following systems:
Directory Server
Portal Server
The next sections take you through the various steps necessary to connect Secure Portal to the Domino
Collaborative Servers using the Lotus Collaborative Components to enable users to experience single
sign-on (SSO) between the Portal Server and Domino E-mail and Sametime Connect Server (Sametime).
Create WebSphere User and Group in Domino Directory
IBM WebSphere Portal Express Server and IBM WebSphere Application Server need a wpsadmins
group containing the wpsadmin and wpsbind user IDs and the following groups:
● wpsContentAdministrators
● wpsDocReviewer
● wcmadmins
The wpsadmin ID already exists. The new user and group are created in the Domino Directory using
the Domino Administrator client.
1. Log on to the Domino Admin client as wpsadmin (
Portal Express Server Administrator).
IMPORTANT: Be sure that you are connected to the master Directory server
(directory/mycompany). The current server is displayed just above the navigation pane on
the left of the window.
If you need to change servers, go to File -> Open Server... to switch to the Directory Server.
2. Click the People and Groups tab and then click People in the navigation pane.
3. Click Add Person and create a person document for the IBM WebSphere Application Server
user ID (wpsbind), filling in the fields in Table 16
below.
If desired, use this table to record information you provide for later reference. A separate
spreadsheet of this table is packaged with this Solution Starting Point.
