Hi Aaron There are many things that need to be in place when creating a Single Sign On for two ASP.Net 2.0 applications (which includes SharePoint).
- Same Machine Keys - Need to set the Domain property of the cookie when creating a new cookie - Set the Domain property in the web.config <forms> element in the authentication section I think you may be having some issues with your domain levels and therefore you can't share your authentication cookie. The MOSS site doesn't need to contain the custom ASP.Net host header. E.g customapp.ap.au.company.com , mossau.ap.au.company.com will work Check and double check the environment settings as one little thing different and cookies will not be shared. I used the following article when setting up Single Sign On between a two custom asp.net apps and MOSS http://www.codeproject.com/KB/aspnet/SingleSignon.aspx Clayton From: ozmoss@ozmoss.com [mailto:ozm...@ozmoss.com] On Behalf Of Aaron Tamblyn Sent: Tuesday, 13 January 2009 8:42 AM To: ozmoss@ozmoss.com Subject: Custom Authentication provider issue Hi, We have struck a problem deploying a custom authentication provider for MOSS. Perhaps one of you has seen this before and can help? Scenario: ========= MOSS is used to provide Excel Services dashboards andwill be displayed in an iFrame inside a custom built ASP.Net application that is located on a different IIS website Custom Forms authentication provider has been developed for MOSS (Windows auth is not an option) The MOSS site reads the cookie from the custom ASP.Net application. To do this, the MOSS site host header needs to contain the custom ASP.Net host header. Example: Custom ASP.Net Application: CustomApp.AP.AU.Company.com MOSS Application: MOSSAU.CustomApp.AP.AU.Company.com Problem: ======== The custom authentication provider works well in development but the redirect fails to display the SharePoint page when deployed to the test environment. The provider successfully authenticates the user and the redirect is called but then SharePoint hangs and then eventually times out. Other info: =========== Test environment: MOSS SP1 (no infrastructure updates) Custom provider and custom login page developed in VS2008 VB.Net We are working through identifying differences between the environments and breaking down the code.
