<div>So you need a SP (Service Provider) implementation in Java to talk with an IdP (like Shibboleth)?</div>

<div>Or are you talking about writing an IdP plug-in to do the actual authentication?</div>

<div>I'm extremely new to this sso, shibboleth, IdP, SP, etc. etc. things. So I thought to ask the experts :). I have to integrate our software with shibboleth (only the IdP part of it). For this I need to create some sort of PAM to access the IdP and receive
the assertions. Now, I need a few guidelines about how the communication between the java code and IdP should be done. More specifically, what a request should contain and where that request should be sent on the IdP in order to obtain an assertion about the
user.</div>
