Re: SAML and ColdFusion - struggling.
Mark, I'm pretty well versed in Shibboleth. You say you are setting up a Shibboleth server, do you mean the IdP product? If so I don't think that is what you want. You need to set up the Shibboleth SP software on your web server in order to consume assertions. Are you receiving these assertions as part of SSO? --Nathan On Tue, Sep 13, 2011 at 2:52 PM, Mark A.
