Appendix F. Configuring Web SSO

TIBCO MFT Internet Server works in a Web SSO environment.

In Web SSO environments, there is typically a software component that performs all authentications. Then the SSO software forwards all requests to the MFT software. The SSO software will pass data in the HTTP request or the HTTP session to define the user that has been authenticated. MFT will extract and validate this information.

TIBCO MFT Internet Server packages an XML file called httpssocustomization.xml that can be used to customize the TIBCO MFT Internet Server authentication method for Web SSO. This file contains detailed information about how to configure the MFT server for Web SSO. It also defines the parameters that should be sent by the SSO server and the validation that should be performed by MFT.

This file is located in the following directory:

MFTIS_Install\server\webapps\context\WEB-INF

Use a text editor such as Notepad to open the XML file to read instructions to configure the TIBCO MFT Internet Server web application for your SSO environment.
