4.7 Deploying

SecureLogin provides centralized management and deployment of user configuration by using the directory structure and administration tools.

You can manage users through the Administrative Management Utility accessed from the Windows Start menu.

The following section explain the various tasks involved in deploying SecureLogin in an ADAM environment.

4.7.1 Configuring a User’s Environment

SecureLogin provides a range of options for deployment and distribution of user configurations. We recommend that SecureLogin configuration is installed on test user accounts prior to deployment.

Configuring a user’s SecureLogin includes:

  • Setting preferences

  • (Optional) Creating password policies

  • Enabling single sign-on for required applications.

  • (Optional) Creating passphrase questions for user selection

4.7.2 Administering SecureLogin In an ADAM Environment

SecureLogin users are managed through the Administrative Management utility. Through this you can manage users at the container, organizational unit, and user object levels.

NOTE:You can administer SecureLogin either through the SLManager or through iManager.

Throughout this document, the phrase Administrative Management utility refers to iManager.

  1. Launch iManager.

  2. Specify your username, password, and tree name

    You can substitute the IP address of an eDirectory server for the tree name. To have full access to all Novell iManager features, you must log in as a user with administrative rights to the tree.

For detailed information on accessing iManager, visit the iManager documentation on Novell Documentation Web site.

4.7.3 Setting Up a Passphrase

After you have successfully installed SecureLogin on a user workstation, set up a passphrase for the user.

Refer Section 1.2, Setting Up a Passphrase for more information.
