DAS: Creating and Searching Users in DAS

In this section you will learn how to create new users and assign your new users the privilege's they need to access their applications.

PREREQUISITES

OID 10g AS infrastructure must be installed

The OID server must be running

The SSO and DAS servers must be running

 

In a browser, navigate to the DAS login home page. This URL will probably be the default web server host name and port number followed by /oiddas

Example:

http://ecultra2.us.oracle.com:7777/oiddas

Click on the "Login" link in the upper right corner of this page. Login to DAS as a user that has administrative privilege's over the user realm in OID. Typically this will be the user "orcladmin".

Once you successfully login to DAS, select the "Directory" tab.

In the "Directory" tab click the "Create" button.

Your browser should be directed to a "Create User" form.

There are many fields in this form but there are only four mandatory fields by default. A blue asterisks character indicates a mandatory field where you must enter a value in order to make this a valid user.

The first field is called "User Name". This field is used to populate the "uid" attribute in OID.

The "Email Address" will be used to populate the "mail" attribute in OID.

The "Password" and "Confirm Password" field will be used to populate the "userPassword" attribute in OID. Remember to choose a password that complies with the password policy that is currently in effect in OID.

The "First Name" field will populate the "givenName" attribute.

The "Middle Name" field will populate the "middleName" attribute.

The "Last Name" field will populate the "sn" attribute.

At the bottom of the form you will see the "Role Assignments" section.

This is where you assign your users application privileges and apply access policies based on default and custom Roles in OID.

We will grant our new user the Role "Privilege Group" which will give our user full DAS privileges.

Now click the "Submit" button to add your new users to this realm.

Later on in this section we will show you how to customize this form.

After you submit your new user you can create another by clicking the "Create Another User" button, or just click the "OK" button to go back to the main "Directory" tab.

Back at the main "Directory" tab location enter all or part of your new users name in the "Search for user" LOV and then hit the enter key on your keyboard or the "Go" button. You can also leave this field blank to get a complete list of all users in this realm.

Click on the users name in the list that is returned to see more details of this new user.

Logout of DAS and then log back in as the new user you have created to verify your user has Single Sign-on access to the application Roles you assigned to them.

 

Watch a viewlet to see how its done.
