[Bodington-developers] Bodington with SP and IdP

[Andrew B. <a.g...@le...>]

Just to keep you up to date, we now have two bodingtons communicating =
IdP to
SP and we have automatic account creation working at the SP end. It
shouldn't take too long to get the groups sorted as well.

At the Bodington behind the SP, we have mapped /site and /shibsite to =
the
same bodington servlet.  The Shibboleth servlet filter is set to protect =
the
/shibsite URLs but not the /site ones, so the same resources can be
shib-protected or not depending on the URL used.=20

One thing that we need to point out is that usernames created in the
SP-protected bodington are of the form use...@my... - =
we
therefore need to increase the size of the username field in the =
database,
which is currently 30 characters wide. We propose to increase it to 128
characters. (The same had to be done with mvnForum to cope with =
usernames of
this kind.)

Do either of these changes (servlet mapping and field width) break =
anything
anyone else is doing?
