Shibboleth as an IDP or SP

[Joe8313]

I am hoping that someone can point me in the right direction.  I am new to
Shibboleth.  I am in the process of setting it us as a IDP.  I currently
have ADFSv2 as what I think is my SP.  I am new to that as well.  I was
tasked with this job duty and I don't have much experience in it.  We have a
Sharepoint server for our student information system.  In the sharepoint
portal, there is a web part that does SSO to OFfice 365 but the user has to
authenticate and have a SAML token.  So I setup ADFS and have that working. 
But we ran into a problem with forcing password change at first login and
self-service password changes.  So I did some reading and some people are
saying that they are doing it using both Shibboleth and ADFS.  Problem is,
they didn't say if they setup Shibboleth as a IDP or as the SP.  I am
thinking as the IDP but I don't want to spend a lot of time trying to set it
up and figure it out if that is not correct.  Does anyone know if that would
be correct?

Thanks
Joe
