Java 2 Connector authentication data entry settings page

Use this page as a central place for administrators to define authentication data, which includes user identities and passwords. These values can reference authentication data entries by resource adapters, data sources, and other configurations that require authentication data using an alias.

We can display this page directly from the JAAS configuration page or from other pages for resources that use J2EE Connector (J2C) authentication data entries. To view this administrative page...

1. Click Security > Global security.

2. Under Authentication, click Java Authentication and Authorization Service > J2C authentication data.

Delete authentication data entries: Be careful when deleting authentication data entries. If the deleted authentication data is used by other configurations, the initializing resources process fails.

Define a new authentication data entry by clicking New.

Prefix new alias names

A checkbox that indicates whether to prefix new alias names with the node name of the cell (for compatibility with earlier releases) or not. The property, com.ibm.websphere.security.JAASAuthData.removeNodeNameGlobal, is set based on the setting of the checkbox.
