DESCRIPTION

Lemonldap is a simple Web-SSO based on Apache::Session modules. It simplifies the build of a protected area with a few changes in the application (they just have to read some headers for accounting).

It manages both authentication and authorization and provides headers for accounting. So you can have a full AAA protection for your web space. There are two ways to build a cross domain authentication:

• Cross domain authentication itself (Lemonldap::Portal::Cda) (not yet implemented in Lemonldap::NG)

• "Liberty Alliance" (see Lemonldap::NG::ServiceProvider and Lemonldap::NG::IdentityProvider)

This library adds a reverse-proxy functionnality to Apache. It is useful to manage redirections if the remote host use it without the good domain.

PARAMETERS

• LmProxyPass (required): Real server to push request to

• LmLocationToReplace (optional): substitution to do to avoid bad redirections. See synopsys for usage.

EXPORT

None by default.
