I download EE, and have been playing around with extensions & modules. We have an environment setup with Oracle OSSO in place. This allows you to authenticate on one server, and pass a token to all partner servers that are connected. So you login, it sets a header value that we want to user as the users’ login.
Is there a way in EE to run a function not during “login_authenticate_start”, but during page load. This way we will load the user as a member if not already loaded, double check them as active in our system, and set them as logged in without having to fill out the login form.
Of course we will create validation for employees that should not have access to the portal.
If this works, we will be building a portal for a 20k plus user site, with hooks into all our other internal and external applications.
