SSO on federated portal

[Former Member]

We have configured a federated portal (EP7SP11, EP7SP12) as follows:

Consumer EP - Producer EP -

---

sso--

---

ECC6

However, when accessing ECC6 frm the consumer EP, SSO is NOT working.

I am prompted for ID/password even the producer EP and ECC6 are

SSO connected.

We have searched the entire SDN and OSS but no findings.

Please advise. Points guaranteed. Thanks!

Hi

U must have exchanged the certificates but one of the main prerequisite for setting up trust in FP is

<b>The server clocks of the producer portal and consumer portal must be synchronized at all times.</b>

u can find prerequisites at

Puneet -

How close do the servers need to be synchronized?

Exact?

Within 5 minutes?

Thanks

Hi!

In general to be able to get SSO work between two Web Application Servers, you need their host system clock to be synchronized. This means that the time difference must be under 120 sec (2min). If the difference is greater, than you can see SSO ticket expire errors in the relevan WAS traces.
