Problem

  • Product Name: BES
  • Product Version: 5.1
  • Product Component: Naming Service

The Naming Service in BES has disabled security by default. How to enable security in this service?

Resolution

The naming service security can be enabled by adding the following property to the VisiBroker properties of the partition or to the naming service properties file:
 
vbroker.naming.security.disable=false
 
When security is enabled in a BES 5.1 partition using the vbroker.security.disable property, the naming service in that partition is not secure. This is due to the default value for a new property introduced in BES 5.1 for the naming service, vbroker.naming.security.disable, which has a default value of true, effectively dissabling security in the naming service. This is a change in the out of the box behavior from 5.0.x to 5.1.

So, the value for vbroker.naming.security.disable property should be set to false to enable security in the naming service.
