That's right - an Eclipse-based desktop app. The login dialog raised by the app ultimately uses Apache httpclient to negotiate auth with the AS. That dialog allows for the entry of username/password, a client-based certificate, or smart-card. On the feature list is SPENGO (Kerberos). Also a CLI, similarly using httpclient. > If it is going to authenticate based on some other credential already in the browser then use the code flow. This hadn't occurred to me. Basically the user needs to know how the AS is configured for auth. If cert-based or Kerberos, they enter their certificate and the native client (with auto-redirection turned off) initiates the code flow, assuming no challenges, until its redirect_uri returns in the Location header. If the AS is configured for username/password, use the password flow. Ideally I was thinking that the client wouldn't have to switch flows based on how the AS is configured, but perhaps that's unrealistic. (In our OAuth extension, we implemented a proprietary sign-in endpoint that optionally took username/password, and returned a token).

We're looking to replace that protocol w/ OIDC. There's a couple of sticky points that I'm not sure how to translate. 1) Rich/Native Client login Imagine an Eclipse-based rich client accepts user credentials and receives a bearer token in return. The negotiation may be basic, credentials-based, SPENGO. The client is anonymous. Rather than using the Resource Owner Password Credentials Grant (where username/password are REQUIRED parameters), we opted for a custom endpoint so that the AS could determine if the request was authenticated in the absence of username/password. Similar to Resource Owner Password Credentials Grant. I'm wondering what the guidance is for such a setup in OIDC. Implicit requires the native client to follow (presumably) 302s with the AS until it gets the final 302 to the callback location. Seems messy for this setup. In the absence of guidance/precedent, I'm inclined to think that a Resource Owner Password Credentials Grant style extension is the way to go for this scenario.
