The Siteminder module allows for users to authenticate to a Drupal site when the site is being run within the Siteminder environment. Siteminder itself is a single sign-on application made by Computer Associates. You can read more about the Siteminder system here http://www.ca.com/us/internet-access-control.aspx
Features
7.x-2.x Branch
This is a complete rewrite of the module to utilize Drupal's external authentication methods and to streamline the codebase. The current 7.x-dev release allows you to authenticate via Siteminder, as well as control how the username is created on the Drupal site and nothing else. I will be bringing features over from the 1.x branch as well as adding new features in the near future. Please post any feature requests in the issue queue!
Current features
- Authenticate via Siteminder via username passed to Drupal in the $_SERVER variable
- Automatically creates the user if it is their first time authenticating on the site
- Filter the username given to Drupal for account creation to remove domain or prefixes
Future features
- Support for Siteminder Profiles and mapping those fields to user profiles
- Plugin system to add profile mapping support to other Drupal modules
- Support for Profile2 mapping
- Exportable support for Configuration and Features
