Modifying domains

The Add Domain facility creates the domain with the minimum details, such as the various service hosts. You need to set many of the detailed attributes, such as the locale settings and the password settings, after creating the domain using the domain Edit facility. After you make and save your changes, AC sends the changes to FS for provisioning.

The configuration details appear on a series of tabbed pages, with the General page appearing by default. The Name field is filled in automatically with the domain name. You cannot modify this field.

a)	For the Language and Country fields, click Choose to set each attribute. A separate window prompts you to select a value.

b)	Select the value you want in the list and click OK. The window closes, returning you to the General tab.

c)	(Optional) In the Variant field enter any variation in the language as required (for example, regional dialects).

Variants are used when the same language has variations based on the country or region.Variants usually specify differences caused by the computing platform. For example, if your company is in Ireland and you want to set a variant for the Irish dialect to specify that the euro is the currency, you would type EURO in the variant field.

4)	In the Invalid Login Limit field, enter the number of invalid login attempts the user can perform before the system locks the user out of their account. The default is 3.

5)	Use the Minimum Length, Maximum Length, Minimum Uppercase Characters, Minimum Lowercase Characters, Reject Username, Numeric Characters, and Special Characters options to set a password policy for the domain:

•	Maximum Length—The maximum length for user passwords. A value of zero, a negative value, or specifying no value is interpreted as no maximum length for user passwords.

•	Minimum Uppercase Characters—The minimum number of uppercase characters for user passwords. A value of zero, a negative value, or specifying no value is interpreted as no requirement for uppercase characters.

•	Minimum Lowercase Characters—The minimum number of lowercase characters for user passwords. A value of zero, a negative value, or specifying no value is interpreted as no requirement for lowercase characters.

•	Reject Username—Selecting this check box indicates that a password cannot contain the username.

•	Numeric Characters—Selecting this check box indicates that each user password must contain at least one numeric character.

•	Special Characters—Selecting this check box indicates that each user password must contain at least one special character. You can enter these characters in the field below, or leave the field blank to use the default.

6)	In the Reuse Allowed After field, specify the number of new passwords the user must use before they can reuse a previous password.

7)	In the Maximum allowed password age field, specify the number of hours that passwords will be valid for. If you leave this field blank, there will be no time limit on passwords.

8)	In the Password Policy Pass Number field, enter the number of password policies that must be met for a password to be accepted. If a number is supplied, at least one password policy must be selected in the Password Policy Checklist.

9)	In the Password Policy Checklist, select the password policies against which a password is checked. The Password Policy Pass Number field cannot be empty if the Password Policy Checklist contains any policies.

Note If both the Password Policy Pass Number field and the Password Policy Checklist are not selected, each policy will be checked on its own and if any fail the password is rejected.

10)	Complete the following steps to set whether you want users to use a standard HTTP connection, secure access, or both when accessing their services over the Web.
