Hello, I'm trying to create a solution to connect with Oracle SSO and I need to create a customised SSO solution for Alfresco. Could you give a hand on which steps I need to take?
Most of the web based SSO solutions I have come across (CAS, Shibboleth, SiteMinder…) have all involved custom coding so they count as bespoke I guess.
There is a fair bit of information in the wiki, jira and here in the forums on the subject - along with sample code:
Of course it depends on what you want to achieve - some of the above may take a few hours to get up and running depending on where you are on the Alfresco learning curve, then tweaking fit your own SSO system shouldn't be too hard since most of them work in the same way:
- Servlet filter or apache module intercepts request - checks the headers/cookies/url for its authentication tokens, - lets through to the app or redirects to a login page
