Hello,

When I was working at BMC, I worked on the Mid-tier second level Help Desk.
We would get a lot of calls from military clients who wanted to setup SSO.
BMC has a SSO product, but some companies decided to use LDAP to
authenticate instead and I had to assist in setting this up.

On the BMC communities page, http://communities.bmc.com there were lots of
posts the described how to set this up. You might start searching there for
information on configuring this with your site.

This was one area where there was a lot of activity and tons and tons of
pays on how to set this up. A landing page was normally used and they used
CAC card readers to sign in with. Once you were swiped in, you had access.

If I have time later today I will look this up for you. It might give you
some more insight into this issue.

Thank you,

Kevin Eldridge
