We implemented OpenSSO with DSpace 1.5.1 and it required minimal code changes
in DSpace. OpenSSO basically gets a user's information and passes it to DSpace
in the http headers where you then have to extract what you want and pass it to
DSpace.
Hope this helps!

Subject: [Dspace-tech] Implementing SSO
Hi,
I've read the previous threads about using SSO with Dspace but wondered if
anyone could point me in the right direction of how to get Dspace 1.8 to work
with our OpenSSO. We'd really like the swordv2 service document to ask for SSO
credentials rather than LDAP. Would I be right in saying that SWORDv2 uses
authentication based on the general DSpace authentication method? It seems to.
If this is the case, if we implemented SSO for DSpace then SWORD should also
use this method.
Any help would be great.
Thanks
Ian
