Configuring Kerberos-SPNEGO authentication in Engineering Publishing
You can generate document-style reports from the IBM Engineering Lifecycle Optimization - Publishing desktop client by using Kerberos-SPNEGO authentication, which is more secure than logging in with a user name and password.
About this task
Kerberos-SPNEGO authentication is more secure than BASIC and FORM-based authentication. The Kerberos authentication protocol relies on a ticket system to permit users to authenticate in a secure manner. When a client authenticates with the Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC) in a Microsoft Active Directory domain, the client is granted a ticket-granting ticket (TGT) and a session key. To use an application that accesses a service that is registered in the same domain, the client requests a separate session ticket for the service.
I recycled the link title, or OSLC discovery wizard from Configuring the certificate and smart-card topic:http://idxdoc02.ratl.swg.usma.ibm.com:9080/knowledgecenter/SS6RHZ_6.0.6/com.ibm.rational.pe.publishing.doc/topics/t_config_cert_auth.html.
CONCERN: Reviewing the following topic, I don't see the OSLC Service Descovery and Selection wizard has an option to specify the authentication method:http://idxdoc02.ratl.swg.usma.ibm.com:9080/knowledgecenter/SS6RHZ_6.0.6/com.ibm.rational.pe.publishing.doc/topics/t_globalconfig.html
QUESTION: Should I remove the mention of OSLC discovery wizard? Also at the bottom of the topic mentions the "global configuration" wizard. Should "globac configuration" be removed as well? If not could you provide a screen capture where the Kerberos-SPENGO authentication is configured?
