I’m looking at a SSO (Single Sign On) solution to fit our relatively simple use case.

Website1 – currently authenticates with database user table.
Website 2 [new] – wants to use the same authentication information and when user clicks link to website1 they shouldn’t have to re-login.

Website1 is J2EE based running on Websphere.
Website 2 is .Net based hosted by external company.

Ideally looking to keep the current user table as the user directory and have time out of session across applications and password expiry.

Any suggestions on ‘simple’ SSO solution, trying to justify it against rolling our own.

    I used the Central Authentication Service project (CAS) on a couple of projects. It was simple, easy to grasp and implement as of version 1.x.

    CAS is an authentication system originally created by Yale University but now part of the Jasig Community.
