Hi,

many years I evaluated both solutions (JOSSO, CAS) but as far as I know CAS is really simple to setup but only provides authentication and not authorization.

Cheers,

Hi!

Personnaly, I solved multi-applications using Tomcat container authentication.
But as Joomla is not Tomcat based, it does not apply to your situation.
In your case, I would recommend to explore CAS type of authentication:

https://wiki.jasig.org/display/CASC/Tomcat

https://wiki.jasig.org/display/CASC/CASifying+Joomla+1.5

Please let me know the final result of your experimentation!

Subject: Single Sign on against joomla

Hi Guys.

I have a jspwiki installation running ina a tomcat, togther with a
couple of other apps. Already doing SSO within tomcat
the usual way (valve). Now we also attached a joomla server, which also
acts as master password provider (and, yes, tomcat
is now proxied by apache).

We already managed to have single credentials by implementing in the
valve a check agains joomla user/pw in the mysql db, so that
a user may log into joomla and into any tomcat based appl using the same
credentials. But would like to have a real Single Sign On
between joomla and jspwiki (and/or all the others tomcat apps).

Any hints? We are going to have a look at Josso but wondering if anyone
has any other suggestion or experience to share.

Tx in advance

LG
