> Shibboleth is a standards based open source software package for web single sign-on across or within organizational boundaries.
> We are providing a simple portlet filter to allow Jetspeed portals to participate in Shibboleth single sign-on.
> This portlet filter will look for Shibboleth specific headers and attempt to authenticate based on a configurable header.
> Authentication against Jetspeed is optional and most likely not necessary, as trusting the Shibboleth provided authentication header, by protected Jetspeed as a resource with a Shibboleth Service Provider should be sufficient. Jetspeed still needs to create a Java Subject and wrapper the request, as demonstrated in this filter.
> Each Shibboleth integration will vary, such as providing different headers for the remote user, LDAP attributes, or other authorization headers such as roles.
