Subject: RE: [saml-dev] attributeexchange: where to add the receiver


Why not use ssl and have the service provider login using a secure
connection.

Assuming that this message exchange is done across the SOAP over HTTP
binding of SAML, could you not just respond to the serviceprovider's
HTTP request (containing the SAML Request) with an HTTP response
(containing the SAML Response)?

If that isn't an option, could you associate a SAML consumer URL ( or
whatever address scheme fits with your message transport ) with each
serviceprovider authenticated identity?  In other words, once a
serviceprovider authenticates with the identityprovider, the
identityprovider queries a database for the appropriate SAML consumer
address for that serviceprovider.

HTH,
