After you entered these configuration setting, you are done on the .LRN side!
h3. Configuring the LAMS Side
# Follow the instructions to install LAMS. You can either [build LAMS|http://wiki.lamsfoundation.org/display/lams/Building+LAMS] from source or follow the instructions for [Window Installers|http://wiki.lamsfoundation.org/display/lamsdocs/Windows+Installer+Help] or [Unix Installers.|http://wiki.lamsfoundation.org/display/lamsdocs/Unix+Installer+Help]
# Login to LAMS as sysadmin.
# Goto Sys Admin->Maintain integrated servers->Add New Server.
# Setup the fields to match those that you put on the .LRN side
# The id, key and name should map to the "LAMS SERVER URL", "LAMS SERVER ID" and "LAMS SERVER SECRET KEY" respectively on the LAMS properties page in .LRN (see above).
# Fill in a description of the .LRN server.
# The "Prefix" field denotes a prefix that will be added to all users from .LRN, for example if you put *lrn* as the prefix and accessed LAMS with a user called "user", their name in LAMS would be "lrn_user".
# The 'disabled' checkbox disables this integration, you can select this later if you wish to disable the connection.
# You can select an existing group to add .LRN users to, or add a new one.
# Enter the User Information URL, this corresponds to the "USER DATA CALLBACK URL". In .LRN these usually is {{http://<your-server-name>/lams2conf/userinfo?ts=%timestamp%&un=%username%&hs=%hash%}}
# You can specify a timeout page that LAMS will go to if there is an error.
