NTLM challenge response with SAML SSO

I have a virtual server that I use for SAML idp and SP initiated. I need to manually enter credentials, how can I configure this for domain joined clients to access this site without entering credentials? I presume delegation is needed, basically I need to initiate the NTLM challenge from the actual virtual server.

 

I see google has a SAML bridge that does this, how can I get this to work with the F5?

  • Last time I heard about this, NTLM on the client-side of APM was only supported for Outlook Anywhere clients. On the other hand, this does not mean that it is impossible.

     

    Here is an article that discusses NTLM authentication on the client-side of things: http://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_apm/manuals/product/apm-aaa-auth-config-11-4-0/5.html

     

    Hopefully someone out there has a better answer.

     

  • I've developed a simple web service that returns email address for the currently logged on user using impersonation, it returns it in xml.

     

    Long shot but perhaps using an XML profile on the VS can read the payload and then provide the data to the access policy?
