Hi Jinghai,
I'm not sure why you want to create a CAS plugin. At least it's unrelated with
OFBIZ-1307
Also are you aware of
https://demo-trunk.ofbiz.apache.org/cmssite/cms/APACHE_OFBIZ_HTML#CASLDAP ?
Does this still work? Do we need a new plugin?
Thanks
Jacques

Thanks Jacques!
If so, I'll release a CAS plugin to make OFBiz offer OAuth2 alliance next week.
I have cas 4.2.x version running in production environment, I'll upgrade it to
cas 5.2.x and then release it.

Hi Jinghai,
Actually I did not pick auth0 (not to be confused with
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OAuth) nor https://oauth.net/2/ because those
need a central
Identify server (as is the SAML protocol).
I simply send a JWT token: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON_Web_Token and
https://jwt.io/ to
Please refer to OFBIZ-10307 "Navigate from a domain to another with automated signed
in authentication"
Thanks for your interest.

Hi Jacques,
OK, I think the redis topic is jumped to next step.
I have read the patches carelly, as a fan of Apereo CAS[1], I wonder why choose
auth0[2] rather than CAS. And is the implement OAuth2 alliance?

Hi Jinghai,
The problem with the token master secret key is to guarantee its secrecy at max.
We already discussed different solutions at https://s.apache.org/7yyR and
https://s.apache.org/IBDM
How is Redis more secure than Postgres for storing values?
Thanks
Jacques

Dear Jacques,
On how to store the Tokens, as a token is a key, value is the UserLogin entity
and/or other info, a key-value db, Redis[1] is a good choice. Redis is no.7 in
db ranking in Aug 2018[2], becomes more and more popular. Goldman Sachs
invested Redis team in last year[3]. It's common view now in China that Redis
is better than any others including Gemfire of Pivotal, the railway ticket
system of China replaced its 3 Gemfire clusters with 3 Redis clusters last year
and then there are much less complains on how difficulties to buy spring
festival tickets.
Mr. Dai Haipeng contributed a Redis component in Jira[4].

主题: OFBIZ-10307: Navigate from a domain to another with automated signed in
authentication
Hi,
Some time ago I created https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-10307.
I asked for reviews but only Taher answered and he asked to know the goal of
this new feature.
It was actually developed for a client who needed to get from one OFBiz
instance on a server (on a domain) to another OFBiz instance on another
server (on another domain) without having to sign up between the 2 while
keeping things secure.
There could be many reasons why you want to split OFBiz application on servers.
In their case it was for performance issues.
The technology used is as secure as possible. Like OAuth 2.0 it uses a token
but it does not need a middle authorization server (think to two-factor
authentication) because it's only for OFBiz instances of the same version.
To commit this work we need 1st to agree an commit the work done by Deepak at OFBIZ-9833
"Token Based Authentication" that I use in my last patch.
For me there is only one question outstanding: how to store the Token secret.
But this should not prevent us to commit Deepak's work.
It's now a long time (9 months) since I started this work. And my last patch is
ready for a month.
I crossed several issues which are now all resolved. So please review and
answer to this thread.
Without negative comments well argumented I'll commit both OFBIZ-9833 and
OFBIZ-10307 in a week. You can always test and review later, we use RTC.
Also a veto on a commit is always possible... Of course, as ever, a good
consensus is preferred.
Let me know if you need more information about the goal. For the technical
details I think I already provided them the in OFBIZ-10307.
Jacques
