Hi all,

Currently we use LTI for auth (though are likely to switch to or add CAS
soon), and use an auth provider which looks up user/role mappings from
our Sakai 2.x LMS, which enables a series in Matterhorn to be associated
(auth-wise) with a particular site in Sakai.


Regards
Stephen

Hi folks!

Olaf noticed I'd snuck in a question about authorization on another
thread.

The question was, how are most people handling auth?

I'm currently leveraging CAS for authentication, and using a postgres DB
for authorization.  I have LDAP at my disposal as well, and we will
probably eventually use that for authorization.  Or maybe Shibboleth -
the people doing those are outside my tiny sphere, so to speak, so it's
going to be a bit there...

I'm satisfied with what we're rocking now though.  I did a simple front
end for user/role management (sadly not inside MH itself -- I tossed my
favorite CFML engine into felix and hit up the DB from there, due to
time constraints and lack of MH orientation that only comes with time).

Anyways, I'm curious as to what the most common configurations are in
the community at the moment.  LDAP? CAS+LDAP? CAS+DB? SAML? Etc.
