Should Safari Do Single Sign On

[mbrunt]

Hi,

My clients are bound to active directory and open directory using golden triangle. When a user logs on and opens up Safari it asks them for their username and password. This is a bit inconvenient as I work in a college and this simply confuses both staff and students (they are a little dim!).

I’ve been to other colleges and once you logon Safari opens up and gets online without needing to reauthenticate. Is there something I’m doing wrong?

Thanks

I have this same issue, using Netsweeper proxy boxes. Its down the the version of NTLM I believe, therefore our proxy will not authenticate our Mac’s when trying to browse the web, user’s have to store their passwords in their keychain. Firefox behaves in the same way, proving it is not a browser issue, but a problem with Mac OS and your Server.
