SSO HTTP transactions do not write X0 journal entry to QAUDJRN

All SSO interfaces write a X0 journal entry to QAUDJRN when a Service Ticket arrives. This is not true for the HTTP interface, for example IBM i Navigator for i.


Use Case:

X0 transactions can be a great help for troubleshooting but also tell how many SSO service tickets come in from a specific interface/user.

    The service principal from the service ticket is put in the X0 audit entry. If krbsrv400 is in the ticket, then that is the service that was used. In this case the signon is likely going through the signon server, not the HTTP server, thus the krbsrv400 service is being used. The X0 auditing is working as designed.

    Well maybe not. Access to http://hemdev.uk.parker.corp:2004/ibm/console/login.do?action=secure does NOTt write the expected HTTP X0 entry but instead it writes the krbsvr400 X0 entry. If I then go into http://hemdev.uk.parker.corp:2001/HTTPAdmin then a HTTP X0 DOES get written to QAUDJRN.

    Please remove this request. HTTP SSO transactions DO WRITE to QAUDJRN.
