How to authenticate users on the customer portal using Ozeki 10

This page gives you the instructions on how to authenticate the users on the Ozeki Customer Portal using the Authentication providers available in Ozeki 10. You can use the built in authentication ("Local system users") or Microsoft Active Directory, LDAP, Radius or MS SQL as the server to identify user accounts.

Step 1 - Switch authentication

Switch to Ozeki 10 authentication by adding the following lines to your config.php file in the customer portal's www directory. In default installations the path of the file is:

C:\wamp64\www\ozekiconfig\config.php

Add these lines to the config.php file

//**************************************************************
// Authentication
//**************************************************************
$auth_allowregistration = false;
$auth_provider = "ozeki10"; //default | ozeki10
$auth_url = "http://127.0.0.1:9509/api"; //only used if ozeki10
$auth_providername = "Local system users"; //only used if ozeki10

In the following video you will see, how to add authentication URL to the Ozeki Customer Port. Follow the steps and it will be easy to do these setups.

Open the config.php file, by reaching it through your PC's file manager. You need to choose the "ozekiconfig" folder at the disk, then select from the "wamp64" folder the folder named "www". Click on the "config.php" twice to view. (C:\wamp64\www\ozekiconfig\config.php)

After opening the file named "config.php", you need to add the authentication codes to the .php file. Copy the necessary lines that we have written above, then paste into their required place.

Copy these lines below the already existing ones:

//**************************************************************
// Authentication
//**************************************************************
$auth_allowregistration = false;
$auth_provider = "ozeki10"; //default | ozeki10
$auth_url = "http://127.0.0.1:9509/api"; //only used if ozeki10
$auth_providername = "Local system users"; //only used if ozeki10

If you are done with it, then type the authentication URL code into the "auth_url" line. If it is ready, save the .php file.
