+ | ===== How it works ===== | ||
+ | - User opens a web application | ||
+ | - Apache resolves it with code 401 - unauthenticated | ||
+ | - [[integration: | ||
+ | - As soon as user authenticates page is reloaded and proxypass used to retrieve the back-end application for user | ||
+ | - Or Apache has to handle 403 Unauthorized - see [[integration: | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== REMOTE_USER or any other attribute ===== | ||
+ | User ID is sent to application in header attribute - REMOTE_USER | ||
+ | In ADUCID AIM it is called UDI | ||
+ | As we use Apache you can rename it to anything else - some applications use x-forwarded-user or other user ID | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Security remarks ===== | ||
+ | Apache has to be accessible only via TLS (https) | ||
+ | Back-end application has to be separated and accessible only from Apache (http, ajp, ...) | ||
+ | Apache installed for ADUCID shouldn' | ||
+ | Headers from client are not transported to the back-end as ProxyPass is used (unless you configure Apache to do it) | ||
+ | So if users sents REMOTE_USER to Apache, it is wiped out and target application won't see it | ||
