We are in the process of of implementing Kerberos.

All my research and testing shows that MQ is not LDAP compliant and that we still need to define local OS user IDs and groups for use with MQ. This being the case means the application user IDs that wish to connect to MQ also need to be local OS user IDs and can not be Kerberos user IDs.

Can anyone tell me if this is correct and if so what options are available to intergrate with LDAP. It appears we may need to replace the MQ OAM with some other product?

Thanks,
Sean.

You can also talk to an IBM sales rep about WebSphere MQ Extended Security Edition.

Yes I have, but these deal with security exits on channels.

I am specifically looking for LDAP support with the setmqaut command (and associated application access). My original post was a little unclear, sorry for that.

I seem to remember reading TAMBI or WebSphere Extended Security Edition supports LDAP. I am checking these now. If they do, assuming we went down that path, I'd imagine that would involve substantial effort. I was hoping there was a simpler solution, similar to using AUTHINFO for CRL'S, that could be used.
