Data type: String

Role

Specifies naming service user roles.

A number of naming roles are defined to provide degrees of authority needed to perform certain WebSphere naming service functions. The authorization policy is only enforced when global security is enabled. The following roles are valid: CosNamingRead, CosNamingWrite, CosNamingCreate, and CosNamingDelete.

The names of the four roles are the same with WebSphere Application Server, Advanced Edition Version 4.0.2. However, the roles now have authority levels from low to high as follows:

  • CosNamingRead. Users can query the WebSphere name space using, for example, the Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) lookup method. The special-subject EVERYONE is the default policy for this role.
  • CosNamingWrite. Users can perform write operations such as JNDI bind, rebind, or unbind, plus CosNamingRead operations. The special-subject ALL AUTHENTICATED is the default policy for this role.
  • CosNamingCreate. Users can create new objects in the name space through operations such as JNDI createSubcontext and CosNamingWrite operations. The special-subject ALL AUTHENTICATED is the default policy for this role.
  • CosNamingDelete. Users can destroy objects in the name space, for example using the JNDI destroySubcontext method and CosNamingCreate operations. The special-subject ALL AUTHENTICATED is the default policy for this role.
