Modifying the User Identification Specification
The default settings for user identification are set to do nothing. The user can authenticated but the
user is not identified as a local user on the system. This is not the scenario we are configuring. We
want the user to be identified on the local system. Additionally, we want to specify which contract
on the Access Gateway is satisfied with this identification. If a contract is not specified, the Access
Gateway resources must be configured to use the Any Contract option, which is not a typical
configuration.
1 On the WS Federation page, click the name of the Adatum identity provider configuration.
2 Click User Identification.
3 For Satisfies contract, select Name/Password – Form.
4 Select Allow federation.
5 For the User Identification Method, select Authenticate.
6 OK twice.
7 Update the Identity Provider.

Importing the ADFS Signing Certificate into the NIDP-Truststore
The Novell Identity Provider (NIDP) must have the trusted root of the ADFS signing certificate (or
the certificate itself) listed in its trust store, as well as specified in the relationship. This is because
most ADFS signing certificates have a chain, and the certificate that goes into the metadata is not the
same as the trusted root of that certificate. However, because the Active Directory step-by-step
guide uses self-signed certificates for signing, it is the same certificate in both the trust store and in
the relationship.
To import the ADFS signing certificate's trusted root (or the certificate itself) into the NIDP-
Truststore:
1 On the Identity Servers page, click Edit > Security > NIDP Trust Store.
