Question

I want to implement/enable SSO (Single Sign On) on my Asp.Net MVC applications.

Please consider the points below below for your kind suggestions:

• I have 3 Asp.Net MVC applications where I want to enable SSO for them.

• I know I can achieve SSO by ADFS (Active directory Federation Services), but I don’t want to use it as I want my external users (end-users) to login in all my 3 applications via SSO.

• (Correct me If I wrong here because as far as I know, ADFS can be used for Active Directory users (meaning company-wide internal users) and not for external end-users. If we can use ADFS for external users, please do let me know how we should achieve it.

• I also don’t want to use OpenID.

• I want to build SSO own for these 3 applications and want to enable SSO between them.

• I want to build SSO that can be used in production environment for
  these 3 applications.

Could you please give me your suggestions on it about how would I achieve SSO by considering all above points?

Thanks in advance and all suggestions are welcome!

Are your applications in the same domain? If so, can you use Forms Authentication Across Applications?
