Configuring basic authentication

IBM mail support for Microsoft Outlook (IMSMO) requires the use of basic authentication. If you want the IMSA server to use session authentication for other applications, you must configure session authentication through a Web Site document and create a Web Site Rule to override it for IMSMO.

Procedure

  1. Determine whether you use session authentication:
    1. Open the IMSA server Domino directory.
    2. Click Configuration > Web > Internet sites.
    3. Choose the Internet site document to modify, and click Edit Document.
    4. Click the Domino Web Engine tab.
    5. If the Session authentication field is set to Disabled, basic authentication is used and you can skip the rest of this procedure. If the value of the field is anything else, session authentication is used.
      Note: If session authentication is configured through the Server document, you must change the configuration to use a Web Site document.
  2. If session authentication is used, create two Web Site Rule documents to override it for IMSMO:
    1. Click Edit Web Site.
    2. Select Web Site > Create Rule.
    3. In the Type of rule field, select Override session authentication.
    4. In the Incoming URL pattern field, enter the following value:
      /traveler*
    5. Save the document.
    6. Select Web Site > Create Rule.
    7. In the Type of rule field, select Override session authentication.
    8. In the Incoming URL pattern field, enter the following value:
      */api/*
    9. Save the document.
