We're looking into integrating SSO into dspace. We currently use OpenSSO.

Our dsapace instance now uses ldap-login and password-login. We'd want
SSO for the ldap-login people. Ideally, instead of ldap-login, the
user would be redirected to our main OpenSSO login screen.

I've seen some info on integrating Shibboleth and dspace - but none
with OpenSSO.

I'm told Shibboleth can leverage OpenSSO - but I'm curious if there
are any known implementations of dspace that integrate directly with
OpenSSO.

If so, I'd appreciate any pointers on where to start, or to know
what's involved.

OpenSSO can work with policy agents installed as modules to Apache or
Tomcat. I'm understand the policy agent is configured to act as a
gatekeeper to the protected resource. I believe session and cookie
data are involved along with redirects between OpenSSO and dspace, and
eventually the establishment of a session (which can also be used in
various other unrelated applications). I'm uncertain of the nitty
gritty details.

Thanks for any info or pointers.

Bill
