eai-uri

Edit online

Use the eai-uri stanza entry to specify the URI of the external authentication interface (EAI) application that WebSEAL can use for certificate authentication. Configure this entry if you do not want to use the standard CDAS authentication mechanism.

Syntax

eai-uri = uri

Description

The resource identifier of the application that is called to perform the certificate authentication. This URI must be relative to the root web space of the WebSEAL server. If this configuration entry is not defined, the standard CDAS authentication mechanism is used to handle the authentication.

Options

uri: The resource identifier of the application that is called to perform the certificate authentication. This URI must be relative to the root web space of the WebSEAL server.
Note: A special value of %lua-eai% is used to indicate that a Lua transformation rule is to be used to perform the certificate authentication.

Usage

This stanza entry is required for EAI-based client certificate authentication.

Default value

no

Example

eai-uri = /jct/cgi-bin/eaitest/eaitest.pl
