Enabling single sign-on and basic authentication
This procedure ensures that a server can participate in single sign-on (SSO). An SSO-enabled server creates single sign-on cookies for users, allowing them to log in to the server and then be able to access other participating servers without having to log in again.

About this task
Use this procedure to enable single sign-on for Domino Release 5.0x servers, or for Domino 6 and higher servers not configured with Web Site documents.
Note: You
can optionally enable the use of client certificates for SSL authentication
for users on an SSO-enabled server. If the user authenticates with
a client certificate, the server still creates an SSO token for the
user in case it will be useful for accessing resources on participating
SSO servers.
