Re:How SAML 2.0 Authentication Works on Monday July 29, 2019 @08:26PM (#20560962)
I was just tasked last week with implementing SAML auth for our applications and have settled on Shibboleth.

For the SP I just installed it from yum after adding the centos repos.

There is a repo config generator at https://shibboleth.net/downloads/service-provider/RPMS/ that I used.

It installs as an apache module and I am building a flow from my load balancers to hit the apache/SP and proxy some traffic to the application after authentication success so we can create our login session.

I have a PoC going now, but the documentation is not terribly clear to me and it is really confusing me about some options I need to tune.

For my initial testing, I built the SP and used https://samltest.id/ to test against an IDP.
