Introduction
The OpenSSO (Open Web SSO) project is an open source project hosted at java.net that offers transparent single sign on to integrate web applications.
In a typical scenario, OpenSSO is a server responsible for identity management,which in turn is backed by some user storage mechanism such as LDAP. Each application on the network does not maintain nor authenticate the user, all the authentication are handled by OpenSSO. This makes possible that a enterprise wide user gains access to every application with a single login. It also facilitates administration, by keeping user attributes in a central place.
The objective of the OpenSSO-Alfresco project is to enlist the various Alfresco front ends (webclient, share, webscripts, SURF, CIFS) as participants of a OpenSSO's single sign on domain.
