Issue/Introduction

Looking to incorporate Single Sign-On with CA Repository For z/OS WebStation Option?
Since SSO works as client-server architecture, there must be a SSO server installed.
Whenever the URL is entered in the browser, it will be authenticated depending upon the setting in the SSO server. In the SSO server there is typically a list of users who can access the application which makes is possible to login without prompting the user for userid and password.

Environment

Component: XWSO

Resolution

1. Create a .txt file named SCRIPT.TXT with the following code
   
   sso html_browse -location "http://machinename:8080/WSO7.1"
   
   sso html_setfield -label "User ID:" -value $_USERNAME
   sso html_setfield -label "Password:" -value $_PASSWD
   sso html_push -name "Log In"
   
   
2. Change the URL in the script to the URL which is used to login to WSO. (e.g. http://machinename:8080/WSO7.1)
   
   
3. Put the script file in the SSO server's script directory.
