= Shibboleth SP on Ubuntu Linux LTS 18.04 =
Installation assumes you have already installed Ubuntu Server 18.04 with default configuration and has a public IP connectivity with DNS setup
Lets Assume your server hostname as '''sp.instXY.ac.lk'''
All commands are to be run as root and you may use `sudo su` to become root
1. Install the packages required:
*
{{{
apt install apache2 ntp ca-certificates vim openssl binutils
}}}
2. Modify `/etc/hosts`:
*
{{{
vim /etc/hosts
}}}
{{{
127.0.0.1 sp.instXY.ac.lk sp
}}}
(Replace `sp.instXY.ac.lk` with your sp FQDN)
== Install Shibboleth Service Provider ==
3. Install dependancies to overcome issues with libcurl libraries. ( Credits: [https://depts.washington.edu/bitblog/2018/06/libcurl3-libcurl4-shibboleth-php-curl-ubuntu-18-04/ Josh L.'s Blog] )

4. Install Shibboleth SP:
{{{
apt install libapache2-mod-shib2 libapache2-mod-php
}}}
From this point the location of the SP directory is: `/etc/shibboleth`
== Configuration Instructions ==
=== Configure Apache2 ===
5. These configurations are based for test purposes with self generated ssl certificates.
If you have purchased ssl certificate from a commercial CA substitute self signed files with those. If you wish to get '''letsencrypt''' certificates on your production, //Skip //to '''Step 10'''.
Create a Certificate and a Key self-signed for HTTPS:
*
{{{
openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:4096 -keyout /etc/ssl/private/ssl-sp.key -out /etc/ssl/certs/ssl-sp.crt -nodes -days 1095
}}}
6. Create the file ```/etc/apache2/sites-available/sp-ssl.conf``` as follows:
{{{
SSLStaplingCache shmcb:/var/run/ocsp(128000)
ServerName sp.instXY.ac.lk:443
ServerAdmin admin@instXY.ac.lk
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
SSLEngine On
SSLProtocol All -SSLv2 -SSLv3 -TLSv1 -TLSv1.1
SSLCipherSuite "EECDH+AESGCM:EDH+AESGCM:AES256+EECDH:AES256+EDH"
SSLHonorCipherOrder on
# Disable SSL Compression
SSLCompression Off
# OCSP Stapling, only in httpd/apache >= 2.3.3
SSLUseStapling on
SSLStaplingResponderTimeout 5
SSLStaplingReturnResponderErrors off
# Enable HTTP Strict Transport Security with a 2 year duration
Header always set Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=63072000;includeSubDomains;preload"
SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/certs/ssl-sp.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/private/ssl-sp.key
#SSLCertificateChainFile /root/certificates/ssl-ca.pem
}}}
7. Enable '''proxy_http''', '''SSL''' and '''headers''' Apache2 modules:
*
{{{
a2enmod proxy_http ssl headers alias include negotiation
}}}
*
{{{
a2ensite sp-ssl.conf
}}}
*
{{{
systemctl restart apache2
}}}
8. Configure Apache2 to open port '''80''' only for localhost:
*
{{{
vim /etc/apache2/ports.conf
}}}
{{{
# If you just change the port or add more ports here, you will likely also
# have to change the VirtualHost statement in
# /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf
Listen 127.0.0.1:80
Listen 443
Listen 443
}}}
9. Configure Apache2 to redirect all on HTTPS:
*
{{{
vim /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf
}}}
{{{
ServerName "sp.instXY.ac.lk"
Redirect permanent "/" "https://sp.instXY.ac.lk/"
RedirectMatch permanent ^/(.*)$ https://sp.instXY.ac.lk/$1
}}}
*
{{{
systemctl restart apache2
}}}
10. '''Let'sencrypt''' setup (//Skip this step if you already configured SSL with self signed or CA provided certificates//) (Optional)
Disable the default configuration
*
{{{
cd /etc/apache2/sites-available/
}}}
*
{{{
a2dissite 000-default.conf
}}}
*
{{{
systemctl reload apache2
}}}
Create a new conf file as `sp.conf`
*
{{{
cp 000-default.conf sp.conf
}}}
Edit `sp.conf` with following
*
{{{
vim sp.conf
}}}
{{{
ServerName sp.instXY.ac.lk
ServerAdmin YOUR-Email
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
}}}
Enable sp site by,
*
{{{
a2ensite sp
}}}
and restart Apache
*
{{{
systemctl reload apache2
}}}

=== Configure Shibboleth SP ===
11. Download Federation Metadata Signing Certificate:
*
{{{
cd /etc/shibboleth/
}}}
*
{{{
wget https://fr-training.ac.lk/metadata-signer -O federation-cert.pem
}}}
12. Edit `shibboleth2.xml` opportunely:
*
{{{
vim /etc/shibboleth/shibboleth2.xml
}}}
{{{
...
...
...
SAML2
...
}}}
13. Create SP metadata credentials:
*
{{{
/usr/sbin/shib-keygen
}}}
*
{{{
shibd -t /etc/shibboleth/shibboleth2.xml
}}}
(Check Shibboleth configuration)
14. Enable Shibboleth Apache2 configuration:
*
{{{
a2enmod shib2
}}}
*
{{{
service shibd restart
systemctl reload apache2.service
}}}
15. Now you are able to download your Shibboleth SP Metadata on:
*
{{{
https://sp.instXY.ac.lk/Shibboleth.sso/Metadata
}}}
(change `sp.instXY.ac.lk` to you SP full qualified domain name)
If you cannot see any metadata specific to your service, you may have to reload your URL several times for metadata to be created. Your correct metadata should contain your sp specific service url's and certificate.
16. Register you SP on LEARN test federation:
* Go to `https://fr-training.ac.lk/rr3/providers/sp_registration` and continue registration with pasting the content of your metadata file
* When Applying for the membership of the federation the form will ask lot of questions to identify your service. Therefore, answer all of them as per the following,
* On the SP registration page start with pasting the whole xml metadata from `https://sp.instXY.ac.lk/Shibboleth.sso/Metadata` and click next.
* If you have correctly entered metadata you will be asked to select a Federation.
* Select "Federation for Training"
* Fill in your contact Details
* Go to Organization tab and Fill in all details for language English(en) by clicking "Add in new language" button
* Go to Contacts tab and add at least "Support" and "Technical" contacts
* On UI Information tab you will see some data extracted from metadata. Apart from those fill-in the rest
* On Certificates tab, make sure it contains Certificate details, if not start Over by reloading IDP's metadata and pasting them.
* On Required Attribute Tab select any attribute your application needs. eg: email as a required and mobile as a desired attribute.
* Finally click Register.
=== Configure an example federated resource "secure" ===
17. Create the Apache2 configuration for the application:
*
{{{
sudo su -
}}}
*
{{{
vim /etc/apache2/site-available/secure.conf
}}}
{{{
RedirectMatch ^/$ /secure
Authtype shibboleth
ShibRequireSession On
require valid-user
}}}
18. Create the "`secure`" application into the IDocumentRoot:
*
{{{
mkdir /var/www/html/secure
}}}
*
{{{
vim /var/www/html/secure/index.php
}}}
{{{
Privacy Policy
$value){
print $key." = ".$value."
";
}
/*foreach ($_ENV as $key => $value){
print $key." = ".$value."
";
}
foreach ($_COOKIE as $key => $value){
print $key." = ".$value."
";
}*/
?>
}}}
19. Install needed packages:
*
{{{
apt install libapache2-mod-php
}}}
* Enable secure site and restart apache
{{{
a2ensite secure
}}}
{{{
service shibd restart
systemctl restart apache2.service
}}}
=== Enable Attribute Support on Shibboleth SP ===
20. Enable attributes by remove comment from the related content into `/etc/shibboleth/attribute-map.xml`
Also you have to Disable `First deprecated/incorrect version` from `attribute-map.xml`
{{{
}}}
=== Enable Single Logout ===
21. Change element in /etc/shibboleth/shibboleth2.xml. They get passed as attributes to the SAML2 logoutInitiator that gets created by the Logout element. The fully unfolded configuration with settings identical to default is:
{{{
SAML2 Local
}}}
Setting asynchronous="false" would make the flow return back to the SP (this otherwise only happens for the SOAP binding which cannot be done asynchronously).
To initiate, create a button or link to go to a URL on the SP of the form: https://sp.instXY.ac.lk/Shibboleth.sso/Logout
You may use following as an example by putting it just above the closing body tag of `/var/www/html/secure/index.php` as
{{{
Logout
}}}
>The SLO would use an asynchronous message to the IdP and the flow would end at the IdP Logout page. The user would be returned to the return URL only if the SLO is done in synchronous mode and the flow returns back to the SP. To set the return URL, pass it in the return parameter as a query string to the Logout initiator - e.g.: https://sp.instXY.ac.lk/Shibboleth.sso/Logout?return=https://sp.instXY.ac.lk/logout-completed.html
=== Enable service provider from your IDP ===
22. To be able to login to your new SP, you must enable it from your IDP.
* Log in to your IDP and become root
* You may want to enable any SP who is a member of the federation, edit `relying-party.xml` by
{{{
vim /opt/shibboleth-idp/conf/relying-party.xml
}}}
And uncomment the following from '''shibboleth.!UnverifiedRelyingParty''' bean
{{{
}}}
Then restart the tomcat
23. Now you may visit https://sp.instXY.ac.lk/secure and try login using your IDP's credentials, check out the consent page at the first login.
Then you should see only the `Scoped Affiliation` attribute of the user as by default other attributes are not included in your attribute filter file.
You will be asked to select one of the option accepting the consent. On acception check-out the passed attribute on your SP page
* To release specific attributes for a SP you can add it to `/opt/shibboleth-idp/conf/attribute-filter.xml` of your '''IDP'''
Consult Service Provider guidelines and https://fr-training.ac.lk/attribute-filter-LEARN-Production.xml on deciding what attributes you should release.
As an example lets allow EPPN, CN, mail and mobile for your sp.
On your IDP,
{{{
vim /opt/shibboleth-idp/conf/attribute-filter.xml
}}}
Add the following to the tail before the closing `` tag.
{{{
}}}
Reload shibboleth.!AttributeFilterService to apply the new SP
{{{
/opt/shibboleth-idp/bin/reload-service.sh -id shibboleth.AttributeFilterService
}}}
Re-visit `https://sp.instXY.ac.lk/secure` , at the login page select '''Clear prior granting of permission for release of your information to this service.''', this will redirect you to the consent page where you can check the attributes that are released by the filter created above.
Once you accept the consent you can see the attributes that were used by your SP. If you can't see attributes like `mobile` in your page, you need to allow them on your attribute-map of the SP.
To do that edit `/etc/shibboleth/attribute-map.xml` on your '''SP'''
{{{
vim /etc/shibboleth/attribute-map.xml
}}}
Uncomment '''Examples of LDAP-based attributes''' section at the end and before the closing `` line, include,
{{{
}}}
And restart shibd and apache2 services and revisit.
Additionally, You may check the session details from `https://sp.instXY.ac.lk/Shibboleth.sso/Session`
