Afternoon all,

I am currently looking at implementing a company wide OAuth server. We
use salesforce as a backing store for nearly everything we do now and
it contains all our user information. Unfortunately, the force.com API
wont let me arbitrarily validate user credentials (which is
understandable) and we don't want to enable API access for all the
users in our system, so that leave me with finding another option.

Salesforce do however support OAuth and I was playing with the idea of
my OAuth server, being an OAuth client of salesforce. I would have to
get users to activate with salesforce the first time they came through
the company OAuth server, but still, what are the general thoughts on
this? It feels a bit hacky, but is it technically a sensible/feasible
idea given the circumstance?

Cheers, Tim
