Portal Logon

[Former Member]

Hi, Everyone,

I have a few questions. We are starting a pilot for an externally facing portal, and we want to know if it is possible to have a logon box in an asp.net page that will authenticate a user against the portal and then take you to the portal? If so, how? We understand that it is possible to use portal technology for the entire pilot, but we would like to see if it is possible to use a mix of html, asp.net or java, and portal technology seamlessly. Thanks.

Regards,

Peter

The IIS Proxy Module might be an option for you. This ISAPI filter works the IIS to be able to establish connections to the SAP J2EE Engine by setting a header variable for the portal logon after the user has successfully authenticated against the IIS.

If you want to integrate ASP.NET technology seamless into the portal you should take a look at the PDK.NET that allows for the development of iViews using Microsoft Visual Studio.

If you want to integrate ASP.NET based applications into the portal as backend systems the SSO22KerbMap Module or the webserver filter for the IIS can be used for SSO to IIS using SAP Logon Tickets.
