Hi All,
I'm looking into extending our system to encorperate enterprise users. This would mean that we would have many users logging in under shared schema's. I've looked through the Oracle documentation and I still have a few questions...
Is the shared schema stuff only compatiable with Oracle Internet Directory or can any LDAP make use of it?
Is Net8 required full stop? or is it only neccassery if you want to use the LDAP Native Naming Adapter thingy?
The Oracle documentation seems to spend a lot of pages on Wallets and SSL enryption. As this will all be running over secure networks such things are not a concern. I would like to keep this as simple as possible is this stuff needed?
How does this change the login process. Currently people login by supplying a username/password database as per every oracle application i've ever seen. The database is looked up in the tnsnames file to an oracle instance that the username/password is valid for.
I assume now that they supply a username/password and Distinct Name? How does The front end know the difference? I.e. what if I want some of my users to be logging in using the old 1 user 1 schema way and others using the new many users 1 shared schema way?
Thanks for any help,
Mike.
