Authentication Parameters

When external authentication is set up for use with ENOVIA products, the standard login and logout pages, emxLogin.jsp and emxLogout.jsp, are by-passed.

Use one of the following parameters to define the alternative login/logout page:

  • To specify a relative path to the URL, use: 
    <context-param id="ContextParam_#">
   <param-name>ematrix.sso.logout.url</param-name> 
   <param-value>URL_FOR_NEW_LOGOUT_PAGE</param-value>
</context-param>

  • To specify an absolute path to the URL, use:

    <context-param id="ContextParam_#">
   <param-name>ematrix.sso.absolute.logout.url</param-name> 
   <param-value>URL_FOR_NEW_LOGOUT_PAGE</param-value>
</context-param>

Enter a value for only one of these parameters. If you enter a value for ematrix.sso.logout.url, that value is used. The ematrix.sso.absolute.logout.url parameter is used only if the first parameter is not set.

To use SSO with Tomcat

To make SSO work with the way the Apache/Tomcat server handles iconmail attachments and page history, use the following setting:

<context-param id="ContextParam_#">
   <param-name>ematrix.server.domain</param-name> 
   <param-value>DOMAIN_NAME</param-value>
</context-param>

This setting is required only for the Tomcat/SSO environment.

To use SSO with ClearTrust

When using Cleartrust SSO, use the following setting:

<context-param id="ContextParam_#">
    <param-name>ematrix.server.mcs.host</param-name> 
    <param-value>http://PROXY_SERVER_URL</param-value>
</context-param>

For example:

<context-param id="ContextParam_22">
    <param-name>ematrix.server.mcs.host</param-name>
    <param-value>http://cleartrust.3ds.net:8002</param-value>
</context-param>
