5.Right-click on Basic Authentication and Windows Authentication to Enable.

Using Single Sign-On

TTo use single-sign-on (and avoid username/password prompts), you must do one of the following

•Access the Portal Server by the alphabetical name (for example http://yourserver).

•Access the Portal Server by the IP address in which case you must also add the Portal

Server to the Local Intranet Zone (Internet Options > Security > Sites). This setting can be

pushed company-wide by an administrator using security policies.

•Change Internet Explorer's default settings to allow Automatic logon with current

username and password (Go to Internet Options > Security > Custom Level > User Authentication).

Use LDAP with SSL

Installing the Root Certificate

If the LDAP server requires SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) for encryption and authentication, you will need to install the certificate locally on the ETV Portal Server as a Trusted Root

Certificate Authority.

TTo install the root certificate locally on the ETV Portal Server as Trusted Root Certificate Authority:

1.Open Internet Explorer.

2.In the address bar type https://LDAPSERVER:636 where LDAPSERVER is the address of the LDAP Server associated with Certificate Authority (See Resolving Other Security Alerts on page 100) and 636 is the SSL port used to authenticate with the LDAP Server.

3.When Internet Explorer displays a Security Alert dialog (Internet Explorer 6) or certificate error screens (Internet Explorer 7), click View Certificate.

4.A Certificate window will open, click on the Certificate Path tab.
