Documentation for Crowd 1.0. Documentation for other versions of Crowd is available too.

To ensure that your Crowd server can only be used by legitimate applications, Crowd will only allow applications to login from known addresses. This means that you need to specify the IP address(es) and/or hostname(s) of each application.

When you add a new application, it is restricted by default to localhost (127.0.0.1). If your application is on a different host, you will need to add the applicable host name or IP address, as described below.

To specify an application's IP address or hostname,

  1. Login to the Crowd Administration Console.
  2. Click the 'Applications link in the top navigation bar.
  3. This will display the Application Browser. Click the 'View' link that corresponds to the application you wish to map.
  4. This will display the 'View Application' screen. Click the 'Remote Addresses' tab.
  5. This will display a list of IP addresses and hostnames that are currently mapped to the application. Type the new IP address or hostname into the 'Address' field and click the 'Add' button.
  6. The new address will be added to the bottom of the list.
  7. To verify that the address is valid, click the 'Config Test' tab, enter the application's 'Username' and 'Password', then click the 'Update' button. This will verify whether the application can successfully login to the Crowd framework.

Common Misconfiguration

For an application to be able to use Crowd, the application's address must be valid and active.
