Purpose

0. Setup

We have a running IdP that was previously setup to use the UNC Federation for metadata. Our IdP is running the 2.0 version of Shibboleth, on a linux-based (RHEL5) VM server. We have Shib configured to run under Apache Tomcat with all public-facing connections proxied through an Apache Httpd.

Our goal was to add the InCommon federation to be able to run in parallel on the same IdP.

The Shibboleth System is a standards based, open source software package for web single sign-on across or within organizational boundaries. It allows sites to make informed authorization decisions for individual access of protected online resources in a privacy-preserving manner. (ref: http://shibboleth.internet2.edu/)
