Authenticate users in Hudson

Enable security on your Hudson site to authenticate users against a CollabNet TeamForge server and specify whether you want single sign-on with TeamForge.

Note: In the default configuration, Hudson does not perform any security check. When you turn on authentication, usernames and paswwords are determined against a CollabNet site. To specify what users can do in Hudson, you need to turn on authorization which is a separate action.

In your Hudson installation, go to Manage Hudson > Configure System.
Select Enable Security.
In the Access Control section, select CollabNet Security Realm to authenticate usernames and passwords.
Enter the URL for your TeamForge site. For example, https://forge.collab.net.
To allow a user logged into TeamForge to sign into Hudson, select Accept Single Sign-On token from TeamForge.
Note: The TeamForge site must have single sign-on with Hudson enabled.
To allow a user logging into Hudson to automatically sign into TeamForge, select Authenticate to TeamForge when signing on to Hudson.
Click Save.
