Hi,

My company wanted to implement SSO for interanet web application. I had went
through GSS-API using kerberos API. But the security team told that for
kerberos authentication firewall port needs to be opened . They suggested
for SAML. I went through SAML specification. It specifies the message flow
but . It didn't specify the authentication technical details.Then i searched
for SAML implementation toolkits and found in sourceid. But they also have
something called Federated Identity . Now I am confused what to use. If
possible kindly provide the details as a difference between SAML , Federated
identity and JAAS using kerberos.

Thanks,

Bala.J
