Hello John,
since we use that setting, too, lets see, what I can tell you. ^^
1. What is the password of the users to use?
> The password of their AD-account.
2. I know the AD password is definitly not synchronised as it is one way encrypted. Does the user needs to be set a new password in portal to login with?
> No, they can derectly use their AD-account (username and password).
3. Will this password be stored on the Java UME only?
> I'm not sure, but I'd say "no". I don't think it is stored in the UME (since the LDAP is connected and the information about the account and password status come from there).
4. what happens if the users AD password changes, will it affect the password stored in the Java UME?
> If the user changes his/her AD-password, that he/she can logon to the portal with that new password immediately. So I don't think, there is any connection to the portal UME database.
Regards,
Steffi.
