Conventions used in this book Typeface This reference uses several conventions for special terms and actions and for operating system-dependent commands and paths. conventions This guide uses the following typeface conventions: Bold Italic v Lowercase commands and mixed case commands that are otherwise difficult to distinguish from surrounding text v Interface controls (check boxes, push buttons, radio buttons, spin buttons, fields, folders, icons, list boxes, items inside list boxes, multicolumn lists, containers, menu choices, menu names, tabs, property sheets), labels (such as Tip:, and Operating system considerations:) v Keywords and parameters in text v Words defined in text v Emphasis of words (words as words) v New terms in text (except in a definition list) v Variables and values you must provide Monospace v Examples and code examples v File names, programming keywords, and other elements that are difficult to distinguish from surrounding text v Message text and prompts addressed to the user v Text that the user must type v Values for arguments or command options Operating system differences This guide uses the UNIX convention for specifying environment variables and for directory notation. When using the Windows command line, replace $variable with %variable% for environment variables and replace each forward slash (/) with a backslash (\) in Preface ix

12 directory paths. The names of environment variables are not always the same in Windows and UNIX. For example, %TEMP% in the Windows operating system is equivalent to $tmp in a UNIX operating system. Note: If you are using the bash shell on a Windows system, you can use the UNIX conventions. Definitions for HOME and other directory variables The following table contains the default definitions that are used in this guide to represent the HOME directory level for various product installation paths. You can customize the installation directory and HOME directory for your specific implementation. If this is the case, you need to make the appropriate substitution for the definition of each variable represented in this table. The value of path varies for these operating systems: v Windows: drive:\program Files v AIX: /usr v Other UNIX: /opt Path Variable Default Definition Description DB_INSTANCE_HOME Windows: path\ibm\sqllib UNIX: v AIX, Linux: /home/dbinstancename v Solaris: /export/home/dbinstancename LDAP_HOME v For IBM Directory Server Version 5.2 Windows: path\ibm\ldap UNIX: path/ibm/ldap AIX, Linux: path/ldap Solaris: path/ibmldaps v For IBM Directory Server Version 6.0 Windows: path\ibm\ldap UNIX: /opt/ibm/ldap/ AIX, Solaris: /opt/ibm/ldap/ Linux: /opt/ibm/ldap/ v For Sun ONE Directory Server Windows: path\sun\mps UNIX: /var/sun/mps The directory that contains the database for your Tivoli Identity Manager product.

15 Chapter 1. Overview of the HP-UX NIS adapter Features of the adapter An adapter is a program that provides an interface between a managed resource and the Tivoli Identity Manager Server. Adapters might or might not reside on the managed resource and the Tivoli Identity Manager Server manages access to the resource by using your security system. Adapters function as trusted virtual administrators on the target platform, performing such tasks as creating login IDs, suspending IDs, and performing other functions administrators normally run manually. The adapter runs as a service, independent of whether or not a user is logged on to the Tivoli Identity Manager Server. You can use the HP-UX NIS Adapter to automate the following administrative tasks: v Creating a user ID to authorize access to the HP-UX NIS server. v Modifying an existing user ID to access the HP-UX NIS server. v Removing access from a user ID. This deletes the user ID from the HP-UX NIS server. v Suspending an user account by temporarily deactivating access to the HP-UX NIS server. v Restoring a user account by reactivating access to the HP-UX NIS server. v Changing a user account password on the HP-UX NIS server. v Reconciling user information for users on an HP-UX NIS server. v Reconciling user information for a specific user account on an HP-UX NIS server.

17 Chapter 2. Installing and configuring the HP-UX NIS adapter Installing and configuring the HP-UX NIS Adapter involves several steps that you must complete in the appropriate sequence. Review the prerequisites before you begin the installation process. You can also create an account on the managed resource for the adapter to use. Prerequisites Table 1 identifies hardware, software, and authorization prerequisites to install the HP-UX NIS Adapter. Verify that all of the prerequisites have been met before installing the HP-UX NIS Adapter. Table 1. Prerequisites for installing the HP-UX NIS Adapter System v A minimum of 256 MB of memory. Operating System v HP-UX version 11i v A minimum of 300 MB of free disk space. The adapter is installed on either of the following types of servers: v PA-Risc for 11i that uses 2.0 CPU or higher v PA-Risc and Itanium for 11iv2 that uses 2.0 CPU or higher v HP-UX version 11iv2 NIS Services The system where you install the HP-UX NIS Adapter must be the designated NIS master (non-trusted) server if you intend to use the NIS support features. Network Connectivity TCP/IP network System Administrator Authority Tivoli Identity Manager Server Version 4.6 The person completing the HP-UX NIS Adapter installation procedure must have system administrator authority to complete the steps in this chapter. Testing network connectivity Note: The HP-UX NIS Adapter software supports machines configured as either trusted and non-secure or non-trusted and non-secure. Support is not supplied for machines configured as non-trusted and secure systems. Note: NIS requires that the UNIX security system use the /etc/passwd file, rather than the Trusted Computing Base (TCB), as the master password file. Therefore, NIS can only be used with the traditional or low security default packages. The high or improved security default packages use the TCB as the master password file. This step tests basic network connectivity. Testing is done between the HP-UX system where the HP-UX NIS Adapter will be installed, and the system where the Tivoli Identity Manager Server is installed. Copyright IBM Corp. 2004,

18 Installing the adapter You must issue a ping command from the Tivoli Identity Manager Server to the designated adapter systems to verify communication. 1. Log on to the HP-UX system as root or superuser. 2. Test communication between the system where the Tivoli Identity Manager Server is installed and the HP-UX system. # ping ITIM_server_host_name The Tivoli Identity Manager HP-UX NIS Adapter installation files are available for download from the IBM Web site. Contact your IBM account representative for the Web address and download instructions. The installation script assigns permanent HP-UX NIS Adapter directory protection and file permissions. In order to install the adapter, complete the following steps: 1. Download the HP-UX NIS Adapter compressed file from the IBM Web site. 2.

On the Installation Completed window, click Finish to exit the program. Importing the adapter profile into the Tivoli Identity Manager Server Before you can add an adapter as a service to the Tivoli Identity Manager Server, the server must have an adapter profile to recognize the adapter as a service. The files that are packaged with the HP-UX NIS Adapter include the adapter JAR file, HpuxProfile.jar. Using the Import feature of the Tivoli Identity Manager Server, you can import the adapter profile into the server as a service profile. The HpuxProfile.jar file includes all of the files that are needed to define the adapter schema, account form, service form, and profile properties. The HpuxProfile.jar file will be referenced in this document to make any changes to the schema or the profile. You will be required to extract the files from the JAR file, make changes to the necessary files, and repackage the JAR file with the updated files. Importing the adapter profile An adapter profile defines the types of resources that the Tivoli Identity Manager Server can manage. You must import the adapter profile into the Tivoli Identity Manager Server before using the HP-UX NIS Adapter. The profile is used to create a HP-UX NIS Adapter service on the Tivoli Identity Manager Server and to communicate with the adapter. Before you begin to import the adapter profile, verify that the following conditions are met: v The Tivoli Identity Manager Server must be installed and running. v You must have root or Administrator authority on the Tivoli Identity Manager Server. In order to import the adapter profile, complete the following steps: 1. Log in to the Tivoli Identity Manager Server using an account that has the authority to perform administrative tasks. 2. On the Main Menu Navigation Bar, select the Configuration tab. Chapter 2. Installing and configuring the HP-UX NIS adapter 5

20 Creating an HP-UX service 3. On the Configuration window, select Import/Export Import tabs. 4. On the Import window, in the File to Upload field, type the location of the HpuxProfile.jar file, or click Browse to locate the file. 5. Click the Import data into Identity Manager link to import the adapter profile into the Tivoli Identity Manager Server. v If the adapter profile is imported successfully, the following message is displayed: Profile installation complete. v If the adapter profile is not imported successfully, the following message is displayed: Profile installation failed. When you import the adapter profile, if you receive an error related to the schema, the trace.log file will contain information about that error. The trace.log file location is specified by the handler.file.filedir property that is defined in the Tivoli Identity Manager enrolelogging.properties file, which is installed in the Tivoli Identity Manager \data directory. After the adapter profile is imported into the Tivoli Identity Manager Server, you must create a provisioning service to allow Tivoli Identity Manager to communicate with the adapter. In order to create a provisioning service on Tivoli Identity Manager, complete the following steps: 1. Log in to the Tivoli Identity Manager Server using an account that has the authority to perform administrative tasks. 2. On the Main Menu Navigation Bar, click the Provisioning tab. 3. On the Provisioning window, click the Manage Services tab. 4. On the Manage Services window, click Add. 5. From the list of service types, select HPUX Service Profile, and then click Continue.

At the Protocol Properties menu, type X to exit the menu. Event notification is a feature of the HP-UX NIS Adapter that updates the Tivoli Identity Manager Server at set intervals. Event notification detects changes that are made on the managed resource and updates the Tivoli Identity Manager Server with the changes. You can enable event notification if you want to have updated information from the managed resource sent back to the Tivoli Identity Manager Server between full reconciliations. Event notification is not intended to replace reconciliations on the Tivoli Identity Manager Server. When event notification is enabled, a database of the reconciliation data is kept on the machine where the adapter is installed. The database is updated with the changes that are requested by the Tivoli Identity Manager Server and will remain synchronized with the server. You can specify an interval for the event notification Chapter 3. Configuring the adapter for IBM Tivoli Identity Manager 13

28 process to compare the database to data that currently exists on the managed resource. When the interval has elapsed, any differences between the managed resource and the database are forwarded to the Tivoli Identity Manager Server and updated in the local snapshot database. There are several steps to enabling event notification. These steps assume that the adapter is communicating successfully with the managed resource and the Tivoli Identity Manager Server. First, you must configure the host name, port number, and login information for the Tivoli Identity Manager Server. In order to identify the server for the DAML protocol to use, complete the following steps: 1. At the Agent Protocol Configuration Menu, select Configure Protocol. For more information on configuring a protocol, see Changing protocol configuration settings on page Type the menu option for the SRV_NODENAME property. 3. Specify the IP address or server name that identifies the Tivoli Identity Manager Server, and press Enter. The Protocol Properties menu is displayed with your new settings. 4. Type the menu option for the SRV_PORTNUMBER property. 5. Specify the port number that the adapter uses to connect to the Tivoli Identity Manager Server for event notification and press Enter. The Protocol Properties menu is displayed with your new settings. The example menu shows all options displayed when Event Notification is enabled. If Event Notification is disabled, not all of the options are displayed. In order to set Event Notification for the Tivoli Identity Manager Server, complete the following steps: 1. At the Agent Main Configuration Menu, type C. The Event Notification Menu is displayed.

Attributes that are marked with two asterisks (**) are returned during the event notification. Attributes that are not marked with asterisks are not returned during the event notification. Modifying an event notification context An event notification context corresponds to a service on the Tivoli Identity Manager Server. Some adapters support multiple services. One HP-UX NIS Adapter can have several Tivoli Identity Manager services, by specifying a different base point for each service. 16 IBM Tivoli Identity Manager: HP-UX NIS Adapter Installation and Configuration Guide

31 The base point for the HP-UX NIS Adapter is the point in the directory server that is used as the root for the adapter. This base point can be an organizational unit (OU) or domain container (DC) base point. Because the base point is an optional value, if a value is not specified, the adapter uses the default domain of the machine on which it is installed. You can have multiple event notification contexts, but you must have at least one adapter. In the example screen below, note that Context1, Context2, and Context3 are three different contexts, all having a different base point. In order to modify an event notification context, complete the following steps: 1. At the Event Notification menu, type H. The Modify Context Menu is displayed. Modify Context Menu A. Context1 B. Context2 C. Context3 X. Done Select menu option: 2. Type the menu letter for the context that you want to modify. The Modify Context menu for the selected context is displayed. A.

B Configuring the target DN for event notification contexts C Removing the baseline database for event notification contexts See page 18. See page 18. Adding search attributes for event notification For some adapters, you might need to specify an attribute-value pair for one or more contexts. These attribute-value pairs, which are defined by completing the steps below, serve multiple purposes: v When multiple services are supported by a single adapter, each service needs to specify one or more attributes to differentiate it from the other services. v The search attributes are passed to the event notification process, once the event notification interval has occurred or is started manually. For each context, a full search request is sent to the adapter. Additionally, the attributes specified for that context are passed to the adapter. v When the Tivoli Identity Manager Server initiates a reconciliation process, the adapter replaces the local database that represents this service with the new database. In order to add search attributes, complete the following steps: Chapter 3. Configuring the adapter for IBM Tivoli Identity Manager 17

41 Chapter 4. Configuring SSL authentication for the HP-UX NIS adapter In order to establish a secure connection between a Tivoli Identity Manager adapter and the Tivoli Identity Manager Server, you must configure the adapter and the server to use the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) authentication with the default communication protocol, DAML. By configuring the adapter for SSL, you ensure that the Tivoli Identity Manager Server verifies the identity of the adapter before a secure connection is established. You can configure SSL authentication for connections that originate from the Tivoli Identity Manager Server or from the adapter. Typically, the Tivoli Identity Manager Server initiates a connection to the adapter in order to set or retrieve the value of a managed attribute on the adapter. However, depending on the security requirements of your environment, you might need to configure SSL authentication for connections that originate from the adapter. For example, if the adapter uses events to notify the Tivoli Identity Manager Server of changes to attributes on the adapter, you can configure SSL authentication for Web connections that originate from the adapter to the Web server used by the Tivoli Identity Manager Server. In a production environment, you need to enable SSL security; however, for testing purposes you might want to disable SSL. If an external application that communicates with the adapter (such as the Tivoli Identity Manager Server) is set to use server authentication, you must enable SSL on the adapter to verify the certificate that the application presents. This chapter presents an overview of SSL authentication, certificates, and how to enable SSL authentication using the CertTool utility. Overview of SSL and digital certificates When you deploy Tivoli Identity Manager into an enterprise network, you must secure communication between the Tivoli Identity Manager Server and the software products and components with which the server communicates. The industry-standard SSL protocol, which uses signed digital certificates from a certificate authority (CA) for authentication, is used to secure communication in a Tivoli Identity Manager deployment. Additionally, SSL provides encryption of the data exchanged between the applications. Encryption makes data transmitted over the network intelligible only to the intended recipient. Signed digital certificates enable two applications connecting in a network to authenticate each other s identity. An application acting as an SSL server presents its credentials in a signed digital certificate to verify to an SSL client that it is the entity it claims to be. An application acting as an SSL server can also be configured to require the application acting as an SSL client to present its credentials in a certificate, thereby completing a two-way exchange of certificates. Signed certificates are issued by a third-party certificate authority for a fee. Some utilities, such as those provided by OpenSSL, can also issue signed certificates. A certificate-authority certificate (CA certificate) must be installed to verify the origin of a signed digital certificate. When an application receives another application s signed certificate, it uses a CA certificate to verify the originator of Copyright IBM Corp. 2004,

42 the certificate. A certificate authority can be well-known and widely used by other organizations, or it can be local to a specific region or company. Many applications, such as Web browsers, are configured with the CA certificates of well known certificate authorities to eliminate or reduce the task of distributing CA certificates throughout the security zones in a network. Private keys, public keys, and digital certificates Keys, digital certificates, and trusted certificate authorities are used to establish and verify the identities of applications. SSL uses public key encryption technology for authentication. In public key encryption, a public key and a private key are generated for an application. Data encrypted with the public key can only be decrypted using the corresponding private key. Similarly, the data encrypted with the private key can only be decrypted using the corresponding public key. The private key is password-protected in a key database file so that only the owner can access the private key to decrypt messages that are encrypted using the corresponding public key. A signed digital certificate is an industry-standard method of verifying the authenticity of an entity, such as a server, client, or application. In order to ensure maximum security, a certificate is issued by a third-party certificate authority. A certificate contains the following information to verify the identity of an entity: Organizational information Public This section of the certificate contains information that uniquely identifies the owner of the certificate, such as organizational name and address. You supply this information when you generate a certificate using a certificate management utility. key The receiver of the certificate uses the public key to decipher encrypted text sent by the certificate owner to verify its identity. A public key has a corresponding private key that encrypts the text. Certificate authority s distinguished name The issuer of the certificate identifies itself with this information. Digital Self-signed signature The issuer of the certificate signs it with a digital signature to verify its authenticity. This signature is compared to the signature on the corresponding CA certificate to verify that the certificate originated from a trusted certificate authority. Web browsers, servers, and other SSL-enabled applications generally accept as genuine any digital certificate that is signed by a trusted certificate authority and is otherwise valid. For example, a digital certificate can be invalidated because it has expired or the CA certificate used to verify it has expired, or because the distinguished name in the digital certificate of the server does not match the distinguished name specified by the client. certificates You can use self-signed certificates to test an SSL configuration before you create and install a signed certificate issued by a certificate authority. A self-signed certificate contains a public key, information about the owner of the certificate, and the owner s signature. It has an associated private key, but it does not verify the origin of the certificate through a third-party certificate authority. Once you 28 IBM Tivoli Identity Manager: HP-UX NIS Adapter Installation and Configuration Guide

43 generate a self-signed certificate on an SSL server application, you must extract it and add it to the certificate registry of the SSL client application. This procedure is the equivalent of installing a CA certificate that corresponds to a server certificate. However, you do not include the private key in the file when you extract a self-signed certificate to use as the equivalent of a CA certificate. Use a key management utility to generate a self-signed certificate and a private key, to extract a self-signed certificate, or to add a self-signed certificate. Where and how you choose to use self-signed certificates depends on your security requirements. In order to achieve the highest level of authentication between critical software components, do not use self-signed certificates, or use them selectively. For example, you can choose to authenticate applications that protect server data with signed digital certificates, and use self-signed certificates to authenticate Web browsers or Tivoli Identity Manager adapters. If you are using self-signed certificates, in the following procedures you can substitute a self-signed certificate for a certificate and CA certificate pair. Certificate and key formats Certificates and keys are stored in files with the following formats:.pem format A privacy-enhanced mail (.pem ) format file begins and ends with the following lines:.arm.der -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE END CERTIFICATE----- The use of SSL authentication A.pem file format supports multiple digital certificates, including a certificate chain. If your organization uses certificate chaining, use this format to create CA certificates. format An.arm file contains a base-64 encoded ASCII representation of a certificate, including its public key, but not its private key. An.arm file format is generated and used by the IBM Key Management utility. format A.der file contains binary data. A.der file can only be used for a single certificate, unlike a.pem file, which can contain multiple certificates..pfx format (PKCS12) A PKCS12 file is a portable file that contains a certificate and a corresponding private key. This format is useful for converting from one type of SSL implementation to a different implementation. For example, you can create and export a PKCS12 file using the IBM Key Management utility, then import the file onto another machine using the CertTool utility. When you start the adapter, the available connection protocols are loaded. The DAML protocol is the only available protocol that supports the use of SSL authentication. You can specify whether or not to use the DAML SSL implementation. Chapter 4. Configuring SSL authentication for the HP-UX NIS adapter 29

44 The DAML SSL implementation uses a certificate registry to store private keys and certificates. The location of the certificate registry is managed internally by the CertTool key and certificate management tool; therefore, you do not specify the location of the registry when you perform certificate management tasks. For more information on the DAML protocol, see Changing protocol configuration settings on page 10. Configuring certificates for SSL authentication Use the following procedures to configure the adapter for one-way or two-way SSL authentication using signed certificates. In order to perform these procedures, use the CertTool utility. Configuring certificates for one-way SSL authentication In this scenario, the Tivoli Identity Manager Server and the Tivoli Identity Manager adapter are set to use SSL. Client authentication is not set on either application. The Tivoli Identity Manager Server operates as the SSL client and initiates the connection. The adapter operates as the SSL server and responds by sending its signed certificate to the Tivoli Identity Manager Server. The Tivoli Identity Manager Server uses the CA certificate that is installed to validate the certificate sent by the adapter. In Figure 2, Application A operates as the Tivoli Identity Manager Server, and Application B operates as the Tivoli Identity Manager adapter. Tivoli Identity Manager Server (SSL client) 1 Hello Tivoli Identity Manager adapter (SSL server) C Keystore CA Certificate A Verify Send Certificate B Certificate A Figure 2. One-way SSL authentication (server authentication) In order to configure one-way SSL, perform the following tasks for each application: 1. On the adapter, complete these steps: a. Start the CertTool utility. b. In order to configure the SSL-server application with a signed certificate issued by a certificate authority: 1) Create a certificate signing request (CSR) and private key. This step creates the certificate with an embedded public key and a separate private key and places the private key in the PENDING_KEY registry value. 2) Submit the CSR to the certificate authority using the instructions supplied by the CA. When you submit the CSR, specify that you want the root CA certificate returned with the server certificate. 30 IBM Tivoli Identity Manager: HP-UX NIS Adapter Installation and Configuration Guide

45 2. On the Tivoli Identity Manager Server, complete one of these steps: v If you are configuring the use of a signed certificate issued by a well-known CA, ensure that the Tivoli Identity Manager Server has stored the root certificate of the CA (CA certificate) in its keystore. If the keystore does not contain the CA certificate, extract the CA certificate from the adapter and add it to the keystore of the server. v If you are configuring the use of self-signed certificates: If you generated the self-signed certificate on the Tivoli Identity Manager Server, the certificate is already installed in its keystore. If you generated the self-signed certificate using the key management utility of another application, extract the certificate from that application s keystore and add it to the keystore of the Tivoli Identity Manager Server. Configuring certificates for two-way SSL authentication In this scenario, the Tivoli Identity Manager Server and the Tivoli Identity Manager adapter are set to use SSL and the adapter is set to use client authentication. Once sending its certificate to the Tivoli Identity Manager Server, the adapter requests identity verification from the server, which sends its signed certificate to the adapter. Both applications are configured with signed certificates and corresponding CA certificates. In Figure 3, the Tivoli Identity Manager Server operates as Application A, and the Tivoli Identity Manager adapter operates as Application B. Tivoli Identity Manager Server (SSL client) Keystore CA Certificate A Verify Hello Send Certificate A Tivoli Identity Manager adapter (SSL Cserver) Certificate A C Send Certificate A Certificate B Verify CA Certificate B Send Certificate B Figure 3. Two-way SSL authentication (client authentication) The following procedure assumes that you have already configured the adapter and Tivoli Identity Manager Server for one-way SSL authentication using the procedure described in Configuring certificates for one-way SSL authentication on page 30. Therefore, if you are using signed certificates from a CA: v The adapter is configured with a private key and a signed certificate that was issued by a CA. v The Tivoli Identity Manager Server is configured with the CA certificate of the CA that issued the signed certificate of the adapter. In order to complete the certificate configuration for two-way SSL, perform the following tasks: Chapter 4. Configuring SSL authentication for the HP-UX NIS adapter 31
