Hello everybody,

I have a question regarding a functionality I want to build for my customers. I don't know whether it belongs here or in the programming discussions but anyways:

I run WHMCS in combination with DotNetPanel. When a customer signs up for a domainname or hosting or whatever service, he will be sent two mails with account info:
- username(email) and password from WHMCS
- username (autogenerated) and password from DotNetPanel

They have to login to both environments seperatly. What I want to do is have a single username and password, let them log in centralised and logged in in both places. This will make it a lot easier to understand for users.

Does anyone has any thoughts on how this would be possible to accomplish?

My thoughts so far was building some kind of a credentials front, where users can log in. The front will delegate this to WHMCS and DNP. The problem remains that there are still two accounts, which have to be managed seperatly by users.

Any ideas, hints, tips?

One SSO system i tried a few years ago was http://www.jasig.org/cas although it might be a bit heavyweight for you needs.

Hmm,

I've been looking to your suggested solution but firstly, it's indeed a little heavyweight, and furthermore, it doesn't integrate with WHMCS and DotNetPanel.

Thanks for the tip though. Anyone else any idea?

hi

i would recommend you to try to use Kerberos based sso implementation,
or try jboss which is platform independent
