Description Brian J. Atkisson 2009-03-03 01:04:34 UTC

Description of problem:

I built out a new RHDS 8 master using setup-ds-admin.pl.  That instance works fine when using the IDM console and I do not get prompted for a directory manager password.  Then I added a second instance on a different port using setup-ds.pl.  I used register-ds-admin.pl in interactive mode and ran through all the options.  register-ds-admin.pl registered the new instance with the admin server.  However, whenever I access this new instance via the IDM console, I am prompted for the directory manager password.  I correctly provided this information when running register-ds-admin.pl.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): redhat-ds-admin-8.0.4-3.el5dsrv


How reproducible: every time, I've tried multiple times


Steps to Reproduce:
1. install a new master with setup-ds-admin.pl (with a local admin server)
2. install another instance with setup-ds.pl
3. run register-ds-admin.pl and provide all the requested information
4. setup-ds-.pl and register-ds-admin.pl will both complete successfully
5. log in with admin user in the IDM console
6. open the new instance, you will be prompted for the directory manager password.
  
Actual results:
prompted for the directory manager password

Expected results:
The new instance should open in the IDM console without prompting for a password.

I believe that this is taken care of by my recent fix for bug 486402.

The problem was that the register-ds-admin.pl script was not setting the pass-through authentication plug-in, which is used to let the admin user authenticate to the non-config DS instances.
