If your OnBase environment includes user accounts that were created from Active Directory mappings, you can optionally configure an integrated login using Active Directory. This allows requests from Deltek Costpoint to the Client Connector for Deltek Costpoint to use individual user credentials.

To configure an Active Directory integrated login:

  1. Locate the web.config file of the Client Connector for Deltek Costpoint. This file is located in the virtual directory of the Client Connector for Deltek Costpoint. In a default installation, the virtual directory is C:\inetpub\wwwroot\DeltekCostpointConnector\
  2. Open the web.config for editing in a plain-text editor, such as Notepad.
    Note:

    Do not open the web.config file for editing in a binary-text editor, such as Microsoft Word. Editing this file in a binary-text editor can introduce invalid characters to the file, making it unreadable by the software.

  3. Locate the transport child element of the security element in the basicHttpBinding block.
  4. Change the value of the clientCredentialType attribute to Windows.
    Note:

    This value is case sensitive and starts with a capital W.

  5. Save and close the web.config file.
  6. Locate the Deltek Costpoint Connector application in IIS. In a default installation, the application is named DeltekCostpointConnector.
  7. Open the Authentication settings for the Deltek Costpoint Connector application.
  8. Disable all authentication methods except Windows.
  9. Ensure that the Windows Authentication method is enabled.
  10. Reset IIS in order for the changes to take effect.
