Re: AW: [EZPROXY-L] Office 365 integration with hosted EZProxy for authentication using active directory?

You may be looking for Shibboleth authentication.  It looks like UT and OCLC both have docs for it.

Good luck,

External.
Access to Actice Directory via LDAP can easily be secured. LDAP-SSL + special limited authentication account with a strong password that is obfuscated. Throw in extra firewall rules and a site to site VPN if you really have to.

You should really fight this, manually manging EZProxy logins is way less secure than using your central authentication system.

Betreff: [EZPROXY-L] Office 365 integration with hosted EZProxy for authentication using active directory?

We use hosted EZProxy.  University security rules keep us from using LDAP, ADFS, etc., to authenticate users against our campus active directory, so I have to enter and manage EZProxy logins manually.  I have heard of various hosted systems such as an LMS being integrated somehow with Office 365 for authentication with active directory data.  If anyone does this or knows anything about this working with EZProxy and is willing to share, please contact me.  Thank you.
