Daniel--
1. It is doable. 2. The way to do it is basically a one-two punch. One, create a Java application (or a simple JSP page, if you can wrap all the authentication against OpenID functionality in) and deploy it into LiveServer's app server -- Tomcat. You can even deployed to the /cps/ directory. Two, when a visitor authenticates successfully, redirect him/her to your project's special login page in LiveServer/Delivery Server. This special login page can be just a simple xml page that uses the login:trusted Dynament which basically logs a user in without checking password and giving that user a bona fide session. This Dynament should also thereafter redirect the user to your regular LiveServer start page. The full authentication cycle is thus complete. =============== The bottom line of any DeliveryServer SSO integration is to actually handle the authentication OUTSIDE the /cps/rde/ LiveServer app, in a separate app. Then force LiveServer to log the user in in "trusted" mode. Be it ActiveDirectory, LDAP or any other format of directory service, this is the way I've always handled SSO successfully. =============== In case you need various levels of authorization (personalized content delivery -- as LiveServer is good for.) you would have to duplicate the user universe in LiveServer's directory. This can be done by creating a Connector and set a schedule to synchronize the user base on interval. I've got NTLM SSO with LiveServer and Apache LDAP (single SSO between Drupal and LiveServer) working in the afore-described fashion seamlessly.
