Hi Richard,<br>
<br>
George from Blackboard here. Steven was kind enough to forward your note along. I wanted to provide some updated guidance for Blackboard's support of Shibboleth on Linux/Solaris.<br>
<br>
We have had clients who have been successful using the older versions of Shibboleth on the older version of Apache which ships with Blackboard. Understandably this is not an optimal solution. Beginning in 9.1 SP8 due out later this year/early next, we are supporting Shibboleth 2.x natively and also Apache 2.x. In the interim, I'm supplying the attached document which describes how to front-end Blackboard with Apache 2.2 thereby allowing you to use the Shibboleth 2.x Apache module with Blackboard. This is a pre-release document that you can use to try out the configuration on a test/development server. I'll ask that you please don't distribute it widely (such as to a listserv). We'll have a more official document and support information available when SP8 is launched. With proper know-how, there's no reason this configuration would not be able to be used in production today.<br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>
-George<br>

I am looking for a little guidance on Blackboard integration. I am integration with ADFS (SAML2, not the ADFS module), but using Shibboleth per Blackboard's published instructions on how to integrate.<br>
Unfortunately, their instructions indicate using Shib 1.1 (which I am having trouble trying build at the moment).<br>
<br>
I wanted to find out if anyone was using the Blackboard Shibboleth authentication module with current (2.4.x) software and what additional steps were needed. I have already repackaged the RPM for Apache 1.3.41 that is included in Blackboard 9.1. I have it passing me to a "secure"<br>
area after successfully authenticating against my ADFS, so it appears that my Apache integration specifically of Shibboleth works fine.<br>
<br>
My guess is that I believe previous versions used the Header vars to pass info, and current uses the Env vars. In addition, they recommend a separate mapped var (ShibMapAttribute) when using Ajp1.2 (which is what is there) since REMOTE_USER doesn't get sent properly, which isn't an Apache directive in the current versions of Shib.<br>
<br>
Also, is there a way to log/capture the unencrypted claims after attribute mapping in Shib so I can verify the claims mapping from ADFS to what Shib expects like eppn, etc.<br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>
<br>
