.NET to SAP - SSO Question

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am trying to implement SSO from our existing .NET application to SAP Portal 6.0.

The .Net app uses forms authetication to logon users, I was told that setting a header variable in the .NET app and configuring EP to read the header variable on form POST should do the trick. Is this true? If not, what are the steps to do this?

Thanks

Hi Krishna,

Thanks for help. I was reading in help portal that we need to have some WAM agent. And in my case i have both the systems sitting in different domains with same usernames in both the userbases(Different userbase). They will be talking through internet.

Any idea??

Thanks

HI Pritam,

Welcome to SDN !

Yes,you can set SSO to Enterprise Portal By passing the user credentials via URL from your .Net application to the initial page of EP umLogonPage.jsp such as using http://<ep server>/irj/portal?j_user=value1&j_pass=value2.

You can get more help from NW 04 Help (Portal --> Portal Developer Guide --> User Management Engine --> SAP Entp Portal --> LoginModule Example)

Hi Siddhartha,

Thanks for the response,

We are using this application for a secure website, I don't want to pass values in the query string such as Username & PWD.

Do you know anything about setting the "REMOTE_USER" header variable as the UserID & passing it on to SAP EP?
