OpenLDAP Support for Requests to the PowerExchange Logger
OpenLDAP Support for Requests to the PowerExchange Logger
PowerExchange introduces support for the OpenLDAP implementation to authenticate pwxcmd requests to the PowerExchange Logger. PowerExchange continues to support the Oracle LDAP implementation.
When you enable LDAP authentication and a pwxcmd command connects to the SVCNODE port of the PowerExchange Logger, PowerExchange connects to an LDAP server to authenticate the enterprise user ID and password that the pwxcmd command provides.
With the introduction of support for OpenLDAP, PowerExchange provides LDAP user authentication on all Linux, UNIX, and Windows platforms where the PowerExchange Logger can run, including the following platforms:
AIX
Red Hat and SUSE Linux x64
Windows x64
The PowerExchange installation program installs the OpenLDAP client files on each Linux, UNIX, or Windows machine where you install PowerExchange.
