Is it possible to create new users in MDM CE?

_AnonymousUser — Tue, 06 Mar 2012 12:52:26 GMT

Hi,
I've been playing around with MDM 5.0.2 and it seems that the only users that can log in to the Wweb UI are "user" and "administrator". Is this a limitation of the Community Edition? Is there a way to populate the provisioning container to add new users using the studio?
Thanks,
C

This is my question, too.

Hi,
Actually, there's no "provisioning" container in Talend Open Studio for MDM. There's only a simple login check.
You can customize <MDM_HOME>/jboss-4.2.2.GA/server/default/conf/login-config.xml to add a simple login.

<!-- Policy for talend MDM -->
    <application-policy name="xtentisSecurity">
      <authentication>
        <login-module code="org.talend.mdm.jaas.jboss.open.SimpleLoginModule"
          flag="required">
          <module-option name="unauthenticatedIdentity">anonymous</module-option>
          <module-option name="logins">admin,administrator,user,foo</module-option>
          <module-option name="passwords">talend,administrator,user,bar</module-option>
        </login-module>

Provisioning and role-based security are Enterprise features, and enable you to administer users directly from the Web UI.
Hope that helps,
Cyril.
