Single sign on

Hi All,

 

I could get single sign on working by following below steps:

 

1. Activate sos feature in salesforce.

2. Adding gateway URL for  webservice

3. Enabling profile for single sign on

4. Webservice written to accept userid and password and authenticate it through LDAP server.

 

so far so good.

 

Now, what i would like to do is, try to access SF by selecting link in my internal application. When link is cliked, it should take the  windows userid and password, ( same id will be there in SF) and open the saleforce. User can continue his work from here on. Once  SF is closed, application release the objects etc

 

Can you please explin how this can be achieved?

 

Thanks

Umesh

Hi Umesh,

 

That sounds like you need Delegated Authentication, there are a few articles written on this topic and SSO from a client here.

Hope that helps,
