Bug 6915

Summary: Access to OrganizationDisplayName in NameMapper module for CILogon service
Product: GridShib Reporter: Von Welch <vwelch@uiuc.edu>
Component: GridShib-CAAssignee: Von Welch <vwelch@uiuc.edu>
Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX    
Severity: normal    
Priority: P3    
Version: 2.0.0   
Target Milestone: ---   
Hardware: All   
OS: All   

Description From 2010-01-14 22:07:35
The goal for the CILogon service is to have DNs of the form:

/DC=org/DC=cilogon/C=US/O=OrganizationDisplayName/CN=displayName (UID)

Where OrganizationDisplayName is from the Shib metadata. The Shib attributes
include the IdP URN which can be used to look up the appropriate metadata
element in order to obtain this element.

First step is to determine if there exists any programmatic method to access
the Shib metadata. If not, figure out an approach.

CILogon is going to go with a statefull model in which DNs are pulled from a
database. This means NameMapper does not need access to OrganizationDisplayName
(some registration code will). This means I have no plans to implement this for
the GridShib-CA at this time. Closing bug.
