For information about installing WLE Security Service software on an NT, Windows 98, or Windows 95 system, see WLE Security Service Installation on Windows NT, 98, and 95 Systems.
The WLE Security Service software is packaged on a CD that is separate from the WLE product box. A WLE Security Service CD is distributed only if you purchased this software. This software provides 56-bit or 128-bit Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Link Level Encryption (LLE) features for WLE applications. Each level of encryption is packaged on a separate CD.
The installation screens are similar for both levels of security. In this chapter, the sample screens are from a WLE Security Service 56-bit installation on a Solaris 2.6 system.
This section describes the following topics:
Before You Install
Before you can install the WLE Security Service 5.0 software, you must first install at least one WLE 5.0 server component, or one of the following WLE 5.0 client component options:
Confirming That the WLE 5.0 Software Has Been Installed
The environment variables discussed in the section Setting Up Your Environment on UNIX Systems must be set prior to installing the WLE Security Service software. The TUXDIR
and dynamic shared library path variables are critical to the success of this Security Service installation, because the SSL plug-in registration step depends on these variables.
During the 56-bit or 128-bit Security Service installation, the procedure will prompt you for the required LDAP server information shown in the following list.
If you do not know the appropriate LDAP values for the prompts, contact the person in your organization or company who is responsible for defining the LDAP server tree. At most companies, this person is the Security Administrator or Directory Services Administrator.
Note:
After the installation, it is not possible to modify a file to adjust these values. The only way to change these values is to re-install the product. Therefore, it is important that you understand the appropriate values for the requested information before you start the installation.
Environment Variables
LDAP Information Required During the Installation
Note: These LDAP prompts are not presented if the target system only has the TUXEDO server or client software installed (from WLE 5.0). In this case, only the WLE Security Service's Link-Level Encryption (LLE) components are installed on the target system. During the WLE Security Service installation procedure, the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) components are not installed on this type of target system.
If you are re-installing the 56-bit or 128-bit WLE Security Service software on a system, the installation procedure will overwrite the LDAP filter file if you selected its default name and location. By default, the LDAP filter file is installed in $TUXDIR/udataobj/security/bea_ldap_filter.dat
, where TUXDIR
is the directory in which you installed the WLE software. The filter file is used to define search filters that can further refine the scope of searches in the LDAP server tree.
On re-installation, the Security Service installation procedure will also overwrite the LDAP peer validation rule file, $TUXDIR/udataobj/security/peer_val.rul
.
Before you re-install the Security Service software, temporarily rename these files if you do not want the installation procedure to overwrite them. After the installation procedure, rename the files back to their original names and locations.
Before beginning the installation, ensure that no BEA TUXEDO or WLE client or server applications are running. For information about the tmshutdown
command, see Starting and Shutting Down Applications in the Administration section of the WebLogic Enterprise online documentation.
On most systems, you need superuser privileges to mount the software CD. The account that you log on to to perform the installation must have administrative privileges.
The platforms listed in Table 5-1 are supported.

This section describes how to install the 56-bit or 128-bit WLE Security Service software on the supported UNIX systems. The sample screens show the installation of the 56-bit software on a Solaris 2.6 system.
It takes approximately 10 minutes to install the software.
To install the WLE Security Service software on a UNIX operating system, perform the following steps:
sh install.sh
.
If all the files are in uppercase characters, begin the installation by entering:
sh INSTALL.SH
1) HP-UX v11.0
2) Sun Solaris v2.6
3) Sun Solaris 7
Install which platform's files? [01- 03, q to quit, l for list]:
Enter 1
to install the Security Service on an HP-UX system; or enter 2
to install the Security Service on a Solaris 2.6 system; or enter 3
to install the Security Service on a Solaris 7.0 system.
