Configure IBM WebSphere Portal Express Server to Use Domino 
Directory 
This task needs to be performed on the following systems:  
Directory Server  
Portal Server 
The next sections take you through the various steps necessary to connect Secure Portal to the Domino 
Collaborative Servers using the Lotus Collaborative Components to enable users to experience single 
sign-on (SSO) between the Portal Server and Domino E-mail and Sametime Connect Server (Sametime). 
Create WebSphere User and Group in Domino Directory 
IBM WebSphere Portal Express Server and IBM WebSphere Application Server need a wpsadmins 
group containing the wpsadmin and wpsbind user IDs and the following groups: 
● wpsContentAdministrators 
● wpsDocReviewer 
● wcmadmins 
 The wpsadmin ID already exists.  The new user and group are created in the Domino Directory using 
the Domino Administrator client. 
1.  Log on to the Domino Admin client as wpsadmin (  Portal Express Server Administrator).

(directory/mycompany).  The current server is displayed just above the navigation pane on 
the left of the window. 
If you need to change servers, go to File -> Open Server... to switch to the Directory Server.
