Folks, I have a requirement to use windows live id as an authentication mechanism along with Single Sign On for an institution,I am trying to use oauth api's.Can any one of you give me an idea on how to implement this and how do I check whether a user is
already signed in or nont on another domain using SSO.Also how do i restrict certain group.of users lets say they belong to some@xyz.edu domain A brief idea would be great.
A fundamental rule in technology says whatever can be done will be done
What are you using for authentication now? Windows/Forms/something else?
Microsoft's Azure Active Directory
Access Control Service (which really has nothing to do with AD) acts an intermediary between your app and several identity providers and can allow users to login from Live, Google, Facebook and Yahoo. It also support federating with active directory or
any other WS-Federation or SAML2P identity provider. You should look into it.
