SSPI security exit

 

WebSphere MQ for Windows supplies a security exit for both the WebSphere MQ client and the WebSphere MQ server. This is a channel-exit program that provides authentication for WebSphere MQ channels by using the Security Services Programming Interface (SSPI). The SSPI provides the integrated security facilities of Windows.

The security packages are loaded from either security.dll or secur32.dll. These DLLs are supplied with your operating system.

One-way authentication is provided on Windows, using NTLM authentication services. Two way authentication is provided on Windows 2000, using Kerberos authentication services.

The security exit program is supplied in source and object format. You can use the object code as it is, or we can use the source code as a starting point to create your own user-exit programs. For more information on using the object or source code of the SSPI security exit, see WebSphere MQ Application Programming Guide
