Configuring Oracle Access Manager for an OpenSSO Enterprise Scheme

The custom authentication scheme for Oracle Access Manager is a C-based implementation, and the custom authentication scheme should be built like a shared library. The custom authentication scheme in this chapter is a Solaris-based shared library and can be ported onto other platforms with similar semantics. This custom authentication module also uses the OpenSSO Enterprise C-SDK for validating the OpenSSO Enterprise session. When an OpenSSO Enterprise WAR file is exploded, the custom authentication module is located under the base-dir/samples/thirdparty/oblix directory. The README.txt contains instructions for configuring the Oracle Access Manager authentication scheme. The following figure provides some details for configuring OpenSSO Enterprise AuthSchemein Oracle Access Manager.
