Discussion:
Authentication with Shibboleth and user.txt: defaulting /login to Shibboleth

Hello,

We are working on a hybrid ezproxy authentication solution with
Shibboleth as the primary mechanism, and barcode/lastname (as per
user.txt) as the secondary mechanism, tailored for alumni and community
patrons. I followed the instructions in the ezproxy documentation --
"Routing users to Shibboleth for authentication" -- and the hybrid
approach works, but the /login page routes to user.txt and
/login?auth=shibboleth&url=^U routes to Shibboleth.

Since the majority of users will use Shibboleth, I want the order
switched: /login routes to Shibboleth and /login?auth=XXXXX&url=^U route
to the user.txt file.

Can this be done, or can someone recommend an alternative approach?

Here is the relevant ezproxy documentation entry:

Thanks,
matt
