Remote Server Configuration

Restriction: This topic applies to Windows environments only.

The remote XDB Server that will receive the translated ID must be configured to accept the new AuthID and database privileges must be given. In the examples, the remote XDB Server is sales.

Make sure the translated AuthID is a valid AuthID in SYSXDB.SYSACFUSERS. Use the SQL Wizard (Windows) or Interactive SQL Utility (UNIX) to add users. In the examples used earlier, the AuthID of devbob would have to be a valid AuthID on the XDB Server sales.

If inbound mapping will not be used on the remote server, grant the appropriate privileges to the translated AuthID using the SQL GRANT command. In the examples used earlier, the AuthID of devbob would have to be given privileges on the XDB Server sales.

If inbound mapping will be used, make sure there is a record in the SYSIBM.SYSLUNAMES on the remote server that references the server from which the request comes. Also, make sure there is a record in SYSIBM.SYSUSERNAMES on the remote server that references the translated AuthID. See the section Outbound, Inbound and Trusting Used Together for more information.
