The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Steve Shipway <address@concealed>]

We're using Sympa with Shibboleth authentication here successfully.  We've 
also hooked into our LDAP to get the additional metadata (full name, etc) as 
our IDP does not provide this metadata (yet).  This is also working over 
multiple virtual domains, as we have about 10 'robots' defined in our Sympa 
installation.

It was surprisingly easy to do, using Apache with mod_shibboleth., shibd etc. 
though I've never used mod_mellon.  The setup, though, seems to just rely on 
setting appropriate auth requirements for a separate directory and then 
picking up the AUTH_USER and any metadata from the cgi environment, so it 
should be the same whichever method you use... I think.
