Component body

A small module that allows users to authenticate with a Belgian eID card, using Fedict's Federal Authentication Service (FAS) and Apache mod_auth_mellon.

Limitations

At the moment, it tightly coupled with FAS and OpenFed distribution.

Requirements

  • Apache Mod Auth Mellon module (part of e.g. Debian or RHEL package collection)
  • Access to Fedict's FAS server (requires following an intake procedure and signing an agreement + creation of a key)
  • On the client/browser side: an eID reader + a Belgian eID card

Other smart cards / IDPs may - at least in theory - work, but are beyond the scope of this module and not supported.
