Creating a single sign-on test environment

To create a test environment for single sign-on you must complete a different scenario before you can complete this scenario.

Complete the Scenario: Create a single sign-on test environment. This scenario demonstrates how to configure network authentication service and EIM to create a basic single sign-on test environment. This scenario guides you through the following steps to configure and work with a simple single sign-on environment:
  1. Complete necessary planning work sheets.
  2. Create a basic single sign-on configuration for the IBM i system.
  3. Add the IBM i service principal to the Kerberos server.
  4. Create a home directory for a test user, John Day, on the IBM i system.
  5. Test the network authentication service configuration on the IBM i system.
  6. Create an EIM identifier for John Day.
  7. Create a source association and a target association for the new EIM identifier.
  8. Test the EIM identity mappings.
  9. Configure IBM i Access Client Solutions applications to use Kerberos.
  10. Verify network authentication service and EIM configuration.
After you have created the single sign-on test environment the scenario describes, you can test your Calendar application to ensure that it works correctly.
