Extension talk:Siteminder Authentication

Login Not Required for View Only
I have this plugin working and it works great. It is designed to require a login even for viewing. Has anyone been able to set this up so that you don't have to Authenticate for view only?
 * While I am only a Siteminder user (others in my organization are responsible for Siteminder administration), I believe you are asking a question that is better directed to your Siteminder administrators. That product can restrict to the specific URL, so you could restrict access to the login page which would trigger Siteminder only when attempting to login. That said, I suggest you visit the Extension:Shibboleth Authentication article and review the configuration there. It is designed to have a separate link that allows login via Shibboleth in addition to the regular login link. That is a collaborative effort between the extension and the Shibboleth configuration. A similar collaboration would be needed between the Siteminder product and this extension.--Vjg 11:40, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Extension Configured with WikiMedia Version 1.13.0 final release
Using Siteminder 6 - QMR5 with valid headers.

User is not created. Just shows the base page with my username up in the right corner. Check the database my user was never created. Any hints.
 * No hints at this time, but thanks for the warning. I'll attempt to install 1.13 sometime in the coming week to see what may have happened. --Vjg 22:42, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
