Your reverse proxy #6

Closed pfmiller closed 8 years ago

pfmiller commented 8 years ago

Hi, We want to only use your plug-in for Google authentication. We use Google at our school so all users have a Gmail account in our domain. If we are already using Oracle wallet on Weblogic server, why would we want to do your reverse proxy approach?
Also, can this same plug-in be used to check on whether someone is in a Google group. I notice you have included "Extra options for google API" and "Google log-in scope" so possibly scope can be expanded to include read-only view of group membership.

thanks

The reverse proxy approach is optional. Sometimes it's harder for an organization to manage the wallet than to manage the webserver.

Also the reverse proxy is needed when using linked-in on an Oracle 11.2.01 database or when using OracleXE.

I'm happy that you are considering using my software. It is nice to hear that the work I put into this pays off :-)
