External Authentication and issues with RSS and Web Scripts

I'm using external authentication with Share and am logging a user in via a filter. You can see a skeleton version of the filter here:http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7517122/alfresco-sso-with-cookieHowever, I've noticed that when I try to access RSS feeds or the Web Scripts panel (/share/service/

Hello,

in order for RSS feeds or feeds of any kind to reuse the same SSO solution you configured for your normal access, you need to also configure the alfresco-feed endpoint on Share in the same manner as the alfresco endpoint, which means pointing it to http://localhost:8080/alfresco/wcs
Beware that this may remove the ability of unauthenticated feed access depending on the feed web script called by the Share feedservice.

Also, in terms of your external authentication scenario: Isn't the out-of-the-box external authentication subsystem already all you need for such a solution? In terms of Share support you may additionally need to supply your own Spring connector (similar thread), but apart from that, it should suit your needs.

Regards
Axel
