WIF application

Out of the box, the WIF API's can only speak WS-Federation, so it cannot
directly integrate with Shibboleth SP, it required a WS-Federation STS (e.g.
ADFS) instead. The extension suggested by Nate is a great solution, but we
haven't seen any progress on this CTP for a long time.

Unless you have a very specific scenario that requires using WIF, Shibboleth
SP by itself will cover all your SSO and identity federation use cases, and
will easily secure your ASP.NET app and link to all your ADFS and Shibboleth
IdP's.

If it's a must to use WIF, then you won't need Shibboleth SP, but you will
need to add one ADFS server to act as a protocol gateway between your web
app and the Shibboleth IdP's.
