Andrew,  

I guess this response from Mike Chale at UF - College of Business was bounced back to him I am forwarding on to the list..  We had issue due to required encryption at UF.

==================================.

Good afternoon, Andrew


We tried to use Shibboleth as an IdP but ran into a few stumbling blocks, one of which was a show-stopper - Salesforce cannot handle encrypted responses from the IdP and our university's current policy is to only provide encrypted responses.

If you would like to discuss any further details I would be happy to help you out.

Unfortunately, my co-worker is the administrator and we are both trying to understand what is going wrong!  :)

We have tried using Salesforce's SAML assertion validator, but that doesn't raise any errors.  I was hoping someone might have experience with Salesforce, or at least have a working Shibboleth-Salesforce setup that I could compare against.

Thanks,
