System Administrator Functions : My webMethods Server Configuration : Configuring External Configuration Credentials : Enabling Authentication
Enabling Authentication
Important:  
The HTTP Header Authentication Administration page should only be enabled if you are using a third-party security provider. After the page is enabled, the server acts as though all users have been authenticated.
To accept authentication from a third party security and access control product
1. As system administrator, click Administration Dashboard > Configuration > HTTP Header Authentication Administration.
2. For User Header Name, type sm_user or SM_user.
3. Select the Enable HTTP Header Authentication check box.
4. If appropriate, in the Logout URL field, type the URL to which the user is redirected after logging out of the server.
5. Click Submit.
6. Configure the third party security and access control software as directed in your vendor’s product documentation.
Note:  
To properly configure an external security and access control product, both My webMethods Server and the third party product must point to the same directory server instance.
