You could always create an OpenVPN gateway that provides access. Many edu
institutions have the same setup to access those resources.

I can cover some of thse:
*phpMyAdmin
This is an open source database manager for MySQL databases - it won't work
for what you want.
*SAML
*OpenID
From the page you link it looks like you know about these two; i.e. they
act as sign in gateways.
OpenID is more indie, SAML is more
.

Ocaasi, please centralize your notes, ideas, and plans regarding this here:

I'm trying to understand the differences between:
*phpMyAdmin
*SAML
*OpenID
*OpenVPN
You should only consider SAML and OpenID. More exactly, you should
really only consider SAML, since the resources you are trying to
connect to only support SAML, and not OpenID. We can use OpenID for

Hi Folks!
The problem: Many proprietary research databases have donated free access to
select Wikipedia editors (Credo Reference, HighBeam Research, JSTOR). Managing
separate account distribution for each service doesn't scale well.
The idea: Centralize access to these separate resources behind
