Thank you.  Has anyone done this, manually created a mapping for attributes passed from another SSO-ipd into a format shibboleth understands please?  If there is a doc on this, I would greatly appreciate the link.  I know it depends on what attribute they are sending, etc, but a generic example would be great.
