Subject: RE: [saml-dev] Question Regarding Java API for SAML


SAML is to JXTA what payload is to protocol. Since most of what is SAML (not SAML-Protocol) is an expression of prior-events: i.e. user was authorized by/authenticated to an Authority using PKI at such a time and the Relying party can trust this by checking a signature or a user-name password. SAML assertions are a means to express secure transactions that have already occured.
 
SAML-Protocol, at least in V2 is still very-much payload, but expresses ways to talk to a federate identity management system which may well be important in a JXTA context.
 
What comes to mind when reading the jxta.org website material is that JXTA expresses some thing that characterize TCP/UDP and encryption may be a ways and means to add more security, SAML has a number of ways to express 'encrypted element' which could add security to your conversation.

Is there any way to make interaction between SAML and JXTA ?
I am thinking to use SAML for Authentication and JXTA for Authorization + Trust Relationship ...
Or is there any other open source architecture for my requirement ?
thnx in advance :)

Consider use of JAXB to parse saml assertion schema into 'beans' that do xml validation. You can get this from Sun's jwsdp1.5+. The examples are quite useful.

Let me list my requirnent as follows
 
we have a website (www.abc.com) that uses services of  (www.abc.com) but we donot want
the user to be authenticated again on www.abc.com, that is why we are thinking of using SAML as a possible solution.
Both Target and Destination are runing on weblogic 8.1 as of now,So can you guys suugest
me on how to proceed forward with it, we tried OpenSAML but there is hardly any documentation and Sample Code avavilable.
 
Plz. suggest on how to move forward on this.

You could have a look at SAMUEL (SAMl Used in ELearning) - a Java SAML
toolkit from the UK JISC Guanxi project:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/guanxi

It's not complete yet - it's about to be updated with a SAML2 Metadata
object binding hierarchy and some javadocs(!) but we use it to support the
Shibboleth profile.
