Any web server with a Shibboleth SP on it?

In the past I've had that on an Apache httpd server that was also
proxying the IDP itself, so the SP "portal" was at
https://login.example.edu/ and the IDP was at
https://login.example.edu/idp (default context of the Shib IDP).

I.e, people entering https://login.example.edu would access the SP and
find a large "login" button there. Clicking that would give them a
local SP session (and create an IDP session, of one wasn't available,
in the process) and with a valid session the SP would display commonly
used applications.

But then you can put such a list anywhere else and the benefit of
people accessing "the IDP" (an SP at the IDP) first isn't obvious.
