<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We have shib_auth working such that users can authenticate through our IdP. The first time a user authenticates, a Drupal account is created for them with no roles assigned.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I see that with shib_auth it is possible to assign roles based on Shibboleth attributes. I was wondering if it was possible to prevent a Drupal account from being created at all unless the Shibboleth attributes have certain values?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The way I’ve been achieving this so far is in the Apache config e.g.:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <Location /><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> AuthType shibboleth<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> ShibRequireSession On<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> ShibUseHeaders On<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> #Only allow access if orgunit-dn matches one of the following<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> require shib-attr orgunit-dn oUnitCode=unit1,ou=units,dc=example,dc=org<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> require shib-attr orgunit-dn oUnitCode=unit2,ou=units,dc=example,dc=org<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </Location><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, I’d also like to use lazy sessions (i.e. ShibRequireSession Off) at which point, this stops working.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks.<o:p></o:p></p>
