Removing SSO from Oracle Report 10g

11.3.1 Enabling and Disabling OracleAS Single Sign-On
To take advantage of OracleAS Single Sign-On out-of-the-box, the SINGLESIGNON parameter in the Reports Servlet configuration file (rwservlet.properties) is set to YES, which indicates that you will use OracleAS Single Sign-On to authenticate users. You may change this parameter to NO, if you choose not to use OracleAS Single Sign-On. If you choose NO, the Reports Server authenticates users by itself. The rwservlet configuration file is usually found in:
ORACLE_HOME\reports\conf

The SINGLESIGNON value is usually commented out after installation, but the default value is YES.

Note:
OracleAS Reports Services is configured for OracleAS Single Sign-On out-of-the-box. Oracle considers this to be the normal security deployment model and you should only turn it off if you plan to run in a completely custom security configuration.

11.3.2 Enabling and Disabling Reports Server Security
Reports Server security is turned on and off in the Reports Server configuration file. By default, the Reports Server configuration file, ORACLE_HOME/reports/conf/servername.conf, contains a security element like the following:






Note:
In releases prior to Oracle Reports 10g, the securityUserid property was specified differently. In Oracle Reports 10g and later releases, the old property specification is still provided but commented out.

This security element is referenced by default from the two default job elements in the configuration file to indicate that Reports Server security should be enforced:




To disable Reports Server security, you must remove or comment the security element as well as the securityId attributes from the job element specifications.
