      Access Manager (NAM)

Environment

NetIQ Access Manager 3.2
NetIQ Access Manager 4.0

Situation

  • processing the configured kerberos fallback authentication only the content of the "login.jsp" will be rendered (banner or footer of the login page are missing)
  • this happens with any JSP Property configured as well as without having any JSP property defined
  • calling the kerberos contract by card renders complete login page

Resolution

  1. Create a copy of login.jsp and name it as login1.jsp.

  2. Modify the login1.jsp and add the following script below the body tag.

    <script>
        if(top.location.href == window.location.href)
        {
            window.location.href="/nidp/jsp/main.jsp?sid=0";
        }
</script>
  3. add property to kerberos method JSP=login1
