Typically, your metadata includes the valid scope for your domain (i.e. in ours, there is the following line: <Extensions> <shibmd:Scope regexp="false">johnshopkins.edu</shibmd:Scope> </Extensions>). If your metadata has the same thing with kutztown.edu, I would suspect that it would fail if you sent @live.kutztown.edu.

Subject: eppn with multiple domains

We currently have an Active Directory with Staff/Faculty in the parent domain with a UPN of Kutztown.edu and Students  in the child domain with a UPN of live.kutztown.edu.  Students login with netID at live.kutztown.edu<mailto:netID at live.kutztown.edu> against AD and the intention is for them to do so with SSO as well.  We have set the eduPersonPrincipalName attribute in AD to reflect the UPN of the Staff/Faculty and the Students.  This appears to be causing some problem with one of the Service Providers that Staff/Faculty and Students are using.  As long as the EPPN is netID at kutztown.edu<mailto:netID at kutztown.edu> the login works as expected, however with the EPPN is netID at live.kutztown.edu<mailto:netID at live.kutztown.edu> the auth works, but is redirected back to the SP's login page.

Is it acceptable to have subdomains used in the EPPN attribute?

Thanks,
Dave
