22.132.0 - On Premise, private cloud

Guidelines

Version 22.132.0 Date: 30.01.2023

Feature: Disable internal aqua authentication when SAML, LDAP or oAuth is set up

Useful when:

  • You have custom security rules in your external authentication system and want to prevent a user from bypassing those rules.

  • Your users should not be able to sign in to aqua with their aqua internal password or have access to reset it.

Guide:

When SAML, LDAP, or oAuth are configured, the internal aqua password is enabled by default.

If you want to disable it, you need to update the aqua server parameter.

When you install a new aqua version, please find the ‘AllowInternalUserAuthentication’ parameter and set it to false.

This setting should be added to the server web.config, typically located in C:\Program Files\andagon GmbH\aqua For IIS\Web\Webservice

Please note that once authentication with aqua password is disabled, the option to reset password from the User Administration page and under the user menu won’t be available anymore.

The reset password button will also be hidden from the aqua login page.
