I have a requirement to authenticate users from a partners PHP website to my
SPS 2003 Portal.
Both applications sit on different networks, different domains.
So, it is like someone logs into a php application in a company, which is
looking to give a link/url to my portal on my network/server.
My partner wants to be able to allow its authenticated users to
automatically login into sharepoint portal, based on their login details,
that they used while loggin into the php website.
Is it possible?
If yes, how can it be done?
Any reply/suggestion would be appreciated.

Cheers,
Sumit

Thx. Gary.

I notice, you have replied earlier to my questions on this forum.

Won't single-sign on work on applications sitting on the same network?

This application is sitting on my clients network, so how would a web
application parse login details to my sharepoint portal?

Appreciate your reply.

cheers,

Sumit

Sumit,

SPS does not store credentials-- the credentials are in Microsoft Active
Directory. There doesn't seem to be a secure way to do this with the Windows
credentials.

You could implement a custom credential store and use custom ASP.NET
authentication but you would only be able to use anonymous rights as far as
SharePoint is concerned, although your code could use your custom
authentication. It really depends what you're using the SPS portal for, this
may or may not be an option for you.

Can you provide some details on your applications?
