Assigning Single Sign-on Preferences

On Linux, CASA Manager enables you to configure and store user sign-on information for Konquerer Web Services and the CASA Network Manager. This feature is not enabled in Windows.

Konquerer Web Services

The CASA Konquerer Web utility allows you to select a preconfigured CASA template to help you provide the user credentials required to access a particular service:

  1. In CASA Manager, click Options > Application SSO > Konquerer.
    The KDE Wallet wizard opens and prompts you for user information for a Web service.
  2. In the drop-down Templates menu, click Novell Innerweb (innerweb.novell.com), then fill in the values for the username and password.
    The template automatically fills in the proper login URL for this Web site:
  3. Click OK.
    The following dialog might appear indicating that CASA Manager is attempting to modify the contents of the KDE Wallet.

  4. To allow CASA Manager to interact with KDE wallet, select Allow Once or Allow Always.
    This setting can be changed later by repeating this procedure for the Web page and changing your preference.
  5. Open a browser and enter the URL of the Web page you configured in Step 2. The user name and password are automatically filled in, if you allowed this option in the previous step.

CASA Network Manager

The CASA NetworkManager utility enables single sign-on to the Linux NetworkManager and the Nautilus network browser using the following procedure:

  1. In CASA Manager, click Options > Application SSO > NetworkManager. The GNOME Keyring window opens.

  2. Enter the appropriate server and user information details required to establish a single sign-on network connection:
    Server type: The type of server connection. Specify SSH, FTP (with login), or Windows Share.
    Server: The name of the server. Specify the fully designated name of the server to which you want to connect.
    Username: Enter the name of the authorized user accessing the network.
    Password: Enter the user’s password.
    Port: Specify the assigned port number to access the network.
  3. Click OK.
    The user is now provisioned to access the specified server using single sign-on.
