Single Sign On in Livelink 9.2

[MrBlond1976]

Hello,
We work with Livelink 9.2 and Single-Sign-On with LDAP. The Next Time The Computernames will be changed. So I want to change the new names of the Users in the database the day before the Computernames will be changed. In which fields in the database i have to make this changing? The only Field I could find the database is the Field "Name" in the table "KUAF". Is that all or are there any more fields which have to be changed?

Thanks for your answers.

What are the changes happening.Can you be more specific ?I do not see why a hardware change should make you think of going into kuaf and changing names?The only thing a hardware change messes up in a livelink install is the admin/indexing process which is definiey tied to a machine name.Are you worried about the ldap syncronization happen betwwen this new machine and the ldap server ?

Well, if I called the wrong number, why did you answer the phone?

Thanks for your reply.

Yes I am worried about the ldap syncronization, because we change the Usernames in the Active Directory. So if I don´t do anything (and syncronize with ldap), I`ll get a lot of new Users. (because the new Usernames don´t exist in Livelink) And the "old" Livelink Users will all be deleteted. And that is not good. So I want to keep my Users and there permissons.

Now my Question: Is it enought to change the Username in the table "KUAF" and field "Name"? Or are there any other fields I have to make changings?

The NAME field in KUAF is all you have to change. We looked at the synchronization code for LDAP and it definitely looks like name is all that is checks. However, just to be safe it would be good if you could run a test with one or two test accounts.
