Hi,

I use v3.3 with the default db backend for customer login and need to
integrate it with an in-house-built customer experience portal (view
reports/bills/marketing materials/etc.).

The customer should login only once (in the portal) and then seamlessly
jump between the portal and OTRS. The OTRS authentication & session
lifetime should be settled transparently behind the scenes between the
systems (i.e. log out / switch id from portal => same in OTRS).

QUESTION: Is there an authentication module in OTRS or in Apache which
could be tweaked to create this integration against our new portal?

Thanks,
Bogdan

P.S:

OTRS' manual points to Kernel::System::Auth::HTTPBasicAuth which seems to
rely on Apache doing the authentication. I know nothing about this approach
but if someone would tell me that it supports log out / switch id in OTRS
when customer does that in our portal, I would look into it.

I also found this http://developer.aaiedu.hr/faq/11.html ~ solution for
v3.0 that integrates with a custom-built PHP SAML provider. I could modify
it to use a [custom] NET provider but I would end up with a very expensive
solution.
