[Feide Updates] Feide IdP update Thursday 24 November 2011
by Olav Morken 24 Nov '11

24 Nov '11

We are planning to do another IdP update at 15:00 this thursday. The update will cause some changes in the way organization selection works on the IdP. There are four changes in this update: 1. Instead of just storing the last organization the user logged in from in the organization cookie, we will store the last five organizations. 2. List the most recent organization(s) for the user in the beginning of the organization drop-down list. 3. Only update the organization cookie after a successful login. (We currently update the cookie whenever the user tried to log in.) 4. The "organization preselection" endpoint has been changed to update the organization cookie instead of a separate "preselection"-cookie. The result of this update is that updating the organization from the preselect-endpoint will always take effect. Previously it did not have any effect if the user had logged in using a different organization at some point during the last 180 days. Best regards, Olav Morken UNINETT / Feide

[Feide Updates] Feide IdP update Thursday 17th November 2011
by Olav Morken 15 Nov '11

15 Nov '11

Hi, we are planning to do a small update of the Feide IdP at Thursday the 17th of November at 15:00. This update will change the layout of various files and directories at the servers hosting idp.feide.no, but will not cause any changes in the code running on the IdP. It should therefore not have any impact on the behaviour of the IdP. The goal of this update is to get a better separation of code updates and configuration updates in the future. After this change we will be able to leave code changes running on idp-test.feide.no while still being able to move configuration changes into the production system. (By configuration changes, we are referring to the modifications to the configuration for organizations connected to idp.feide.no, i.e. LDAP servers, contact information, and system and test account usernames and passwords.) Best regards, Olav Morken UNINETT / Feide
