Adding an Enterprise LDAP for Authentication
* 
PTC strongly recommends that you configure access control within Windchill Business Reporting before adding an Enterprise LDAP for authentication purposes. See Configuring Windchill Business Reporting Access Control.
To add an Enterprise LDAP for authenticating users for Windchill Business Reporting, follow these general steps:
1. Add another LDAP Authentication namespace which corresponds to the Enterprise LDAP using the Cognos Configuration tool.
2. Configure your Web server to authenticate against the Enterprise LDAP when authenticating Windchill Business Reporting requests.
3. (Optional) Configure the Cognos namespace selection behavior when logging in to Windchill Business Reporting.
The following sections provide more detail on these steps.
