(I couldn't find a forum specifically for Federation Services - mods please move this if there is one)
Hi,
I'm looking for help on Federation Services 2.0 and using forms based login for internal clients that don't support integrated authentication, such as non-Windows mobile devices. Our FS environment is an internal FS 2.0 server & FS 2.0 proxy in the DMZ.
Using the IdpInitiatedSignon.aspx page internally works fine. If we access the website from external, it lands at the IdpInitiatedSignOn.aspx page but prompts for a forms based logon.
When we enter the FormsSignIn.aspx URL from internal (either on FS 2.0 server, or via FS 2.0 proxy) or external, it gets a generic error: "There was a problem accessing the site. Try to browse to the site again."
So considering that from external, IdpInitiatedSignOn.aspx is detecting it's an external request and properly loading the forms based logon page, this is the behaviour we want to control internally. Also as FormsSignIn.apsx does not load at any point for us, I suspect it's broken or not functional in a proxy environment.
I'm looking for some guidance in being able to have internal non-Windows clients be able to login through a forms based page. Has anyone come across this before? Any suggestions?
Thanks.
