This plugin add SAML support to Elgg.  Convert it in a SAML Service Provider (using the simplesamlphp software).

You will need to build also a SAML Identity provider, use the LemonLDAP as the auth backend and connect the SAML IdP with the Elgg SP.

I installed the SAML files from Google Code, as well as the plugin for Elgg. However, I have not configured the plugin properly (other than pointing to the location of the SAML files). Should I edit the authsources.php file and replace it with the project IDs from Windows Live/Google? How should I configure the plugin so SAML works with Elgg?

Hello,

I can not run this mod.
I do not know if this is the mode itself. My conf. Or my simpleSAMLphp conf.
I created a discution on the simpleSAMLphp mailing list with all the details of my installation.

If you have the goodness to give me a hand :)

Thanks for the update!

i cannot use this plugin when I have the option "Restrict pages to logged-in users" in Administration settings.

my site is a restricted site and access to anything in there has to be only after sign in - so i enable the above option.

when enabled, when i go to home page, i see the login prompt - but cannot click Uniquid link because it says i need to be logged to view the page.

any advice / suggestions how i can make it work ?

@suresh this problem is resolved in the saml_login 1.1.1.

If you are using elgg 1.8.5 use saml_login 1.2 version better.
