Single sign-on

[Glaucio Scheibel <gl...@datasul.com.br>]

Hi all,

Has someone already implement Single sign-on with Jackrabbit? Maybe 
using JOSSO or OpenSSO?
I already look at web and didn't find any example about this.

Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry for that, I really should update that page... Can you please
file an improvement request in Jira for that?

If you're using Maven, then just adding jackrabbit-core as a
dependency will do the trick. Otherwise the easiest solution is to
download the jackrabbit-webapp war file and take all the jars from the
contained WEB-INF/lib folder.

There's increasing interest in using Jackrabbit and JCR in a wide
variety of domains. For example I'm currently working with the Apache
James project to create a JCR-based email store and with the
incubating Lokahi project to store configuration information in a
content repository.

The content repository concept is generic enough to apply to almost
any domains, just like relational databases. So far the main focus has
been on applications like content and document management, and
probably the performance and other operational requirements are best
met for such domains, but there is much interest in widening our scope
to support all sorts of applications and domains.

First Hops?

[Porter Woodward <pw...@practicable.net>]

Hey all -

I'm considering some first hops with Jackrabbit and am slightly stymied.

http://jackrabbit.apache.org/doc/firststeps.html

Still references Jackrabbit 1.0 - and the project is onto release 1.3;  
it also references several dependencies - and the downloads page is no 
longer clear as to which jar files would be required to get a basic 
repository application up and running.  Just curious if any one has a 
quick guide as to what needs to be downloaded and put onto the class 
path in order to fire up a little test project.

Obviously, Jackrabbit is an implementation of the JCR API.  Other than a 
classic content repository, has any thought been given to alternative 
uses of the API?  Say one was to use it to back an email client?  Would 
it be appropriate, and have acceptable performance characteristics for 
those of us who never delete anything that isn't spam?  What about using 
it to store a persistent, but dynamic game world?  Would it work for a 
single player on a local system?  What about for multiple players on a 
shared system?

Inquiring minds want to know.  Other than the classic Plone / Magnolia 
Content Repository type applications - how applicable is the JCR API 
(and thence Jackrabbit) to other sorts of domains?

Hi Guys,

You have been talking about SSO. Actually I am a new bee to openSSO.
I want to know, whether i can use openSSO API for SSO rather than
integrating my application with openSSO itself.

Waiting for responses from u people.

Jackrabbit uses JAAS for authentication, so you should be able to
fairly easily integrate with any SSO solution based on JAAS. A while
ago I did an integration with CA SiteMinder and faced no problems
doing that.

Hi All,

Did anybody tried integrating openSSO with Alfresco?
