User registry considerations for the Echo application

The Echo Web service expects a login from a user named wssm-testuser with a password of testonly123. Therefore, you must add this user to the user registry or user registries that you are using for your Echo environment.

You can use any user registry that is supported by WebSphere® Application Server. However, to ensure that the Echo application works correctly, consider the following tips:

• An environment in which the Echo Web service application and Tivoli® Access Manager use the same user registry simplifies your configuration because you must add the wssm-testuser to only that one registry.
• If you choose to use different registries for the Echo Web service and Tivoli Access Manager, be sure you have added the wssm-testuser to both of the registries.
• If you are running on the z/OS® platform with WebSphere Application Server using 'Local operating system' for the user registry and cannot use a username greater than eight characters, then select a different username to use with the Echo application. This username must be specified in the wssm_test.xsl mapping file located in the wssm/examples/etc directory. In the wssm_test.xsl file, replace wssm-testuser with the selected username. To perform Tivoli Access Manager authorization checking with the Echo application, the selected user ID must also be defined to Tivoli Access Manager and be given access to the protected object for Echo.
