xSP Web Authentication not working

I have a xSP Domino 6.0.1CF1 server running under RH9. As an administrator (certified under the primary organization) I am able to authenticate normally to access iNotes. But other users (under the hosted organizations) are not able to authenticate to access their iNotes. They have tried various credentials (e.g. “Firstname Lastname”, “Firstname.Lastname@Internet-Address”).

My question: Which names.nsf view is used for web authentication? I know that the ($Users) view is different for xSP servers.

Thank you for your support.

check the “Internet authentication:” field in the server document, this may help.

I have tried both security settings, but no success.

Do you have a xSP server with web authentication and if so, which user id format works?

Thank you for your support.

I’m using “Fewer name variations with higher security” and the users login with the value from the Internet Address field.

Hy,

I have the same problem with my installation.

I set up a 6.0.2 CF2 server on a w2k server.

If I create a hosted org I am the only one who can access the hosted orgs mailfile. Even the owner of the mailfile is not able to access it.

I set the security settings to “More name variations with lower security” but still no success.

The server access is set to “users liste in all trusted directories” and additionaly I created a server acceess group with the users listed in it. To test the access I tried to grant the hosted org admin “full access administrator” permissions. But still no success.

What else can I set or test?

I’m pretty sure that it’s just a little configuration problem, but I can’t figure it out.

Any help is highly appreciated.

Best regards

Tom

Hi

Check the Directory ACL, by default it should contain */HostedOrg. You can try do clear it to allow anonymous access to the directory or just add anonymous.

cheers

Thank you Thommy, but unfortunately this does not help :o(

The ACL of the Mailfile is as following:

(just for testingpurpose)

Default - Manager

*/Org05 - Manager ← Testname for hosted org

Anonymous - No Access

LocalDomainServers - Manager

Homeserver - Manager

User Org05/org05 - Manager

my adminaccount/rootdomain - Manager

But everytime the user tries to access his mailfile he gets the following errormessage:

Error 401

User not authenticated

As already mentioned, I’m pretty sure that I missed an small but important security setting.

btw, I updated the ACL of the DomDir with the following entry: */org05 - Manager

But without success…

I’m starting to get frustrated…searching all settings over and over…

Can you please provide me with your settings, or your way to grant the hosted orgs access to the environement?

With best regards

Tom

hhhmm… I think I got it :o)at the moment it looks like the acl file had the wrong entries…

This is very confusing to me…

I always trusted the default settings…since there is a */org05 entry in it…

but I added the user manualy to the file and …it works :o)))))

many thanks for your effort to help me Tommy…

best regards

I’m having the same problem. Can you elaborate on what you did to correct this. What do you mean "ACL FILE"Are you saying you manually added the user to their own mail file (changed the ACL)

My users have themselves listed in the ACL of their own mailfiles but listed with Editor access. I tried giving them Manager access but without any luck.

This is very frustrating to me and I have looked into this several times for hours without any luck. Your post is the closest I have come.

Thanks in Advance
