<font size=2 face="sans-serif">I have Shibboleth SP 2.4.3 installed and
working in Apache httpd 2.2 as far as the test URLs (Shibboleth.sso/Status
and Shibboleth.sso/Metadata) are concerned. It is proving a challenge to
wade through the documentation and find what I need for my setup though.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">What I need is what I think was the
only option under Shibboleth 1.x - a SP to handle an assertion initiated
from a partner' web site. They will provide a link to our web site with
whatever information we require; the payload of the link will probably
require encryption to prevent spoofing. This will be the only way their
users will access our web site so I do not think that a link back to them
as an IdP is needed, nor do I want to require that they establish something
new to implement an IdP.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Is there a roadmap available for implementing
such a setup? Shibboleth is new for me, so a roadmap for dummies would
be ideal.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Thanks!</font>
