Hello All,

In the New York University Digital Library Program (DLP)
we are developing multiple web applications that require
authentication.

After reviewing the Yale Central Authentication Service (CAS)
design ( http://www.yale.edu/tp/auth/cas10.html ) we developed
a similar "Authentication Service" that leverages the Shibboleth
Single Sign-on infrastructure.

This Authentication Service allows DLP web application developers
to incorporate Shibboleth authentication without having to
"Shibbolize" their applications.

The design is documented here:
http://dlib.nyu.edu/~pawletko/shib/docs/authn_service_diagram.pdf

Any comments you have are appreciated.

Thank you for your time.

Regards,
Joe
