AuthenticationService
The AuthenticationService is used to manage partner channels. To encrypt passwords and certificates, the service uses a key from a keystore. For dealing with keys and keystore please refer to the Java documentation. Normally these values do not have to be changed.
Attention: Deleting the keystore or losing the stored passwords effectively results in the loss of passwords and certificates stored in the database.
XML configuration
Important note: The availability of a service depends on the license purchased and whether the service has been registered in the configuration file ./etc/factory.xml of the Service Factory (changes require server restart!). There you will also find the responsible configuration file for a service, otherwise you can also edit the configuration file of the service directly in the GUI of the service (changes require a service restart!).
The following XML fragment shows the configuration for the database access.
<Set name="authAlias">hub</Set><Set name="jdoAlias">hub</Set>The following XML fragment shows the configuration for the keystore.
<Set name="keyStoreFilename">etc/authkeys.dat</Set><Set name="keyStoreType">JCEKS</Set><Set name="keyStorePasswd">password</Set><Set name="keyPassword">keypass</Set>These values usually do not need to be changed.
