 Lotus Domino Directory and UsersLocate this document in the navigation structure

The Ticket Verifier performs single sign-on against the Lotus Domino Directory (previously known as the Public Name&Address book). The SAP logon ticket carries an SAP EP user name. The Ticket Verifier performs a Domino directory look-up operation to retrieve the canonical name of the corresponding Lotus Domino user to log on. This leads to the following possible scenarios:

 

  • Domino Directory user names match portal user namesIn the case of a single match of each portal user name with a Lotus Domino user ID, the Ticket Verifier works for all users without any modification.

 

  • Domino Directory user names differ from portal user namesIn this case user name mapping is required on Domino side (name aliases). Since Lotus Domino is able to carry several different user names (aliases) for a particular Lotus Domino user (for example, for the user Michael Sambeth it might carry "Michael Sambeth/dev/sap" as well as "MSambeth" and "Michael K. Sambeth"), all you have to do is to add the SAP use rname to the Lotus Domino Person Record. The SAP user name is then changed to the corresponding Lotus Domino canonical name when the Domino Directory look-up operation takes place.
