   #### Figure 4-11 Apache Listener Configuration for Oracle Portal (DAD and Schema name) Screen

   Text description of the illustration n_adad.gif

   The Apache Listener Configuration for Oracle Portal DAD screen allows you to enter the name of the Database Access Descriptor (DAD) that will be used to access Oracle Portal, and the name of the database schema where Oracle Portal will be installed. It also enables you to enter the TNS connect string if Oracle Portal and Oracle HTTP Server are installed in different Oracle homes. The information you enter here is used to create the PL/SQL Gateway settings which you can access upon installation from the following location: `http://`machine_name`:`port`/pls/admin_/gateway.htm`

   - Portal DAD Name: Enter the name of the DAD for each instance you installed in the database. A Database Access Descriptor (DAD) is a set of values that specify how the Apache Listener connects to your Oracle database server to fulfill an HTTP request. Based on this DAD name, the installation automatically sets other DAD-related and default settings such as the name and location of the document table. The default DAD name is `portal30`.

   - Portal Schema Name: Enter the name of the database schema that will contain Oracle Portal. A schema is a collection of components and database objects under the control of a given database user. Each Oracle Portal application maps to an Oracle database schema. The default schema name is `portal30`.

   - TNS Connect String: Enter the TNS connect string or TNS alias that you will use to connect to the remote Oracle database after installation. It enables you to install the Portal database objects into a remote database. Since you are installing in a new Oracle home, you will need to enter a TNS connect string before it is actually created. The Net8 Assistant will appear later in the installation process to guide you in the configuration of a new TNS alias. Be sure to note the name of the TNS connect string you enter here, so that you will use the same name when the Net8 Assistant appears later.

3. Enter or accept the default Login Server DAD and Schema names. If necessary, enter the TNS Connect String. Click Next. This screen will appear only if you selected Oracle9iAS Portal in the Component Configuration and Startup screen.

   #### Figure 4-12 Apache Listener Configuration for Oracle Portal (Login Server) Screen

   Text description of the illustration n_alog.gif

   The Apache Listener Configuration for Oracle Portal screen allows you to enter the Login Server DAD and Schema Name, with a `_sso` extension for easy recognition. The Login Server provides an enterprise-wide Single Sign-On (SSO) mechanism that enables an Oracle Portal user to log in securely to Oracle Portal and any partner and external applications using a single user name and password. It also enables you to enter the TNS Connect String if Oracle Portal and Oracle HTTP Server are installed in different Oracle homes.

   - Login Server DAD Name: Enter the name of the DAD for each instance you installed in the database.The default DAD name is `portal30_sso`.

   - Login Server Schema Name: Enter the name of the database schema that will contain Oracle Portal.The default schema name is `portal30_sso`.

   - TNS Connect String: Enter the TNS connect string or TNS alias that you have defined for the remote Oracle database.

     For more information on these fields, refer to the previous screen.

4. Enter the Global Database Name and System Identifier (`SID`) and click Next.

   #### Figure 4-13 Database Identification Screen

   Text description of the illustration n_dbid.gif

   The Database Identification screen allows you to enter the Global Database name and SID of the database used to run Oracle Enterprise Java Engine applications.

   Note: This database is licensed only to run Oracle Enterprise Java Engine applications and should not be used for other purposes. It will be installed in the same Oracle home as Oracle9i Application Server.

   - Global Database Name: This is the full database name that distinguishes it from any other database in your network domain. For example: `db.us.oracle.com,` where `db` is the name of the database and `us.oracle.com` is the network domain in which the database is located.

   - SID (System Identifier): This is the database instance name that distinguishes it from any other database on your system. For any database, there is at least one instance associated with the database. The `SID` field defaults to the database name portion of the Global Database Name. (For example: `db`). You can accept or change the default value.

5. Enter the hostname, port number, and SID of the database where you will install the Oracle9iAS Wireless repository, and click Next. If you are upgrading from Oracle9i Application Server, Release 1.0.2.0, then an "Upgrade Installation Detected" screen will appear. Review the screen and click Next or Exit accordingly. If you click Next, then the following screen will appear.

   #### Figure 4-14 Wireless Edition Repository Information Screen

   Text description of the illustration n_repinf.gif
