On the Specify Login for Oracle Internet Directory Screen, What Username and Realm Do I Enter?
Configuring Oracle Internet Directory for Oracle Application Server Installation Privileges
5-17
This screen prompts you to enter a username and password to log in to Oracle Internet
Directory.
Username
In the Username field, enter either the simple username or the user’s DN.
Simple username example: jdoe
DN example: cn=orcladmin
The user must belong to specific groups for installing and configuring certain
components. See
for details.
If you want to specify the superuser, enter cn=orcladmin, not just orcladmin.
Realm
The Realm field appears only if your Oracle Internet Directory contains more than one
realm. The username that you enter is authenticated against the specified realm. If you
are unsure what the realm name is, contact your Oracle Internet Directory
administrator.
Example 1: in a hosted deployment, the realm name could be similar to the name of
the hosted company: XYZCorp.
Example 2: within an enterprise, you could have separate realms for internal users and
external users. The realm name for the external users could be externalUsers.
