APM Sharepoint authentication
Problem this snippet solves: Updated version to support Webdav with windows explorer after Nicolas's comment. APM is a great authentication service but it does it only with forms. The default behavior is to redirect user to /my.policy to process VPE. this redirect is only supported for GET method. Sharepoint provide 3 different access types: browsing web site with a browser Editing documents with Office browser folder with webdav client (or editing documents with libreoffice through webdav protocol) This irule display best authentication method for each of these access types: browsers authenticate with default authentication method (form based authentication) Microsoft office authenticate with Form based authentication (with support of MS-OFBA protocol) Libreoffice and webdav clients authenticate with 401 basic authentication Form based authentication (browser and Microsoft office) is compatible (validated for one customer) with SAML authentication Editing documents is managed with a persistent cookie expiring after 5 minutes. to be shared between IE and Office, it requires : cookie is persistent (expiration date instead of deleted at the end of session) web site defined as "trusted sites" in IE. How to use this snippet: install this irule and enable it on the VS.
