SSO on Roller 5.1.1

Hi,

We’re upgrading our old installation of Roller 4.0 to 5.1.1. 

Our old setup uses acegi-based SSO to plug into the rest of our website’s authentication/permissions system.  We see that Roller 5 no longer uses acegi, and we cannot find anything about current “best practices” for setting up SSO on Roller 5.  We need to convert our current implementation using an acegi AuthenticationProvider to whatever is the new way of doing this.

Any pointers?   Thank you!

	—Guillermo Payet

Our LDAP guide is here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ROLLER/Roller+5.1+with+LDAP, however the Wiki is down at the moment (it's being managed by Apache, out of control of the Roller team, it should hopefully be back up soon.)  In the meantime, you can also check the security.xml file in the Roller WAR (the very latest copy of it is here, should be but perhaps not the exact copy in your WAR distribution: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/roller/trunk/app/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/security.xml?revision=1578699&view=markup) the comments in that file should be helpful.  Searching the Roller Install guide for LDAP may also provide more information.

Roller 5.1.2 is being voted on now.  Our LDAP guide is here: 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ROLLER/Roller+5.1+with+LDAP, 
however the Wiki is down at the moment (it's being managed by Apache, 
out of control of the Roller team, it should hopefully be back up 
soon.)  In the meantime, you can also check the security.xml file in the 
Roller WAR (the very latest copy of it is here, should be but perhaps 
not the exact copy in your WAR distribution: 
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/roller/trunk/app/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/security.xml?revision=1578699&view=markup) 
the comments in that file should be helpful.  Searching the Roller 
Install guide for LDAP may also provide more information.

HTH,
Glen
