Thanks Axton, I will take a look at the docs you provided. So are you saying that in order to use SiteMinder you have to develop a custom AREA plugin and make changes to login.jsp on Mid-Tier. Please bare with me as this is my first exposure to SSO with Mid-tier.

It involves writing a custom AREA plug-in as well as customizations to login.jsp and custom servlets on the mid-tier server. There are BMC whitepapers on the subject as well, though I have not used them as we developed the sso solution using a 6.0.1 mid-tier server which did not have the Authenticator hooks the newer versions of mid-tier have. We can keep the discussion on the list; other people may have things to add and things to gain through visibility into the discussion.
