Re: O'Reilly / Safari EZproxy Shared Secret/Single Sign On

It does not take a year. OTOH, our state consortium helped us get the ball rolling so maybe without that, it might have taken longer. Everything seems to be working just fine. We use Shibboleth along with EZproxy. They'll assign someone to work with you and you'll get a new stanza to use.

Subject: [EZPROXY-L] O'Reilly / Safari EZproxy Shared Secret/Single Sign On

Hi all

We've recently been told by O'Reilly that we can't use the OCLC Safari Books Online stanza anymore and now need to use their EZproxy Shared Secret/Single Sign On method.

I've just been checking through emails to this group though and finding some worrying accounts of this taking a year to set up and still not working properly!

Does anyone have any current positive or negative experiences of this new method, as would really appreciate hearing them before going ahead with this? Please contact me off-list if you prefer.

All the best
Adam
