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

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

Create the file /etc/apache2/sites-available/sp-ssl.conf as follows:

   <IfModule mod_ssl.c>
      SSLStaplingCache        shmcb:/var/run/ocsp(128000)
      <VirtualHost _default_:443>
        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
        
      </VirtualHost>
   </IfModule>

Enable proxy_http, SSL and headers Apache2 modules:

a2enmod proxy_http ssl headers alias include negotiation

```
a2ensite sp-ssl.conf
```
```
systemctl restart apache2
```

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
 
     <IfModule ssl_module>
       Listen 443
     </IfModule>
    
     <IfModule mod_gnutls.c>
       Listen 443
     </IfModule>

Configure Apache2 to redirect all on HTTPS:

vim /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf

     <VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName "sp.instXY.ac.lk"
        Redirect permanent "/" "https://sp.instXY.ac.lk/"
        RedirectMatch permanent ^/(.*)$ https://sp.instXY.ac.lk/$1
     </VirtualHost>

```
systemctl restart apache2
```

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

<VirtualHost *:80>
 
        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

</VirtualHost>

Enable sp site by, *

a2ensite sp

and restart Apache

```
systemctl reload apache2
```

Configure Shibboleth SP

Download Federation Metadata Signing Certificate:

```
cd /etc/shibboleth/
```

wget https://fr-training.ac.lk/metadata-signer -O federation-cert.pem

Edit shibboleth2.xml opportunely:

vim /etc/shibboleth/shibboleth2.xml

     ...
     <ApplicationDefaults entityID="https://sp.instXY.ac.lk/shibboleth"
          REMOTE_USER="eppn persistent-id targeted-id">
     ...
     <Sessions lifetime="28800" timeout="3600" checkAddress="false" handlerSSL="true" cookieProps="https">
     ...
     <SSO discoveryProtocol="SAMLDS" discoveryURL="https://fds-training.ac.lk/shibboleth-ds/index.html">
        SAML2
     </SSO>
     ...
     <MetadataProvider type="XML" uri="https://fr-training.ac.lk/signed-metadata.xml" legacyOrgName="true" backingFilePath="LEARN-metadata.xml" reloadInterval="600">
           
           <MetadataFilter type="Signature" certificate="federation-cert.pem"/>
           
           <MetadataFilter type="RequireValidUntil" maxValidityInterval="864000" />
     </MetadataProvider>

Create SP metadata credentials:

```
/usr/sbin/shib-keygen
```

shibd -t /etc/shibboleth/shibboleth2.xml

(Check Shibboleth configuration)

Enable Shibboleth Apache2 configuration:

```
a2enmod shib2
```

service shibd restart
systemctl reload apache2.service

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.

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"

Create the Apache2 configuration for the application:

```
sudo su -
```

vim /etc/apache2/site-available/secure.conf

     RedirectMatch    ^/$  /secure

     <Location /secure>
       Authtype shibboleth
       ShibRequireSession On
       require valid-user
     </Location>

Create the "secure" application into the IDocumentRoot:

```
mkdir /var/www/html/secure
```

vim /var/www/html/secure/index.php

     <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
     <html>
       <head>
         <title></title>
         <meta name="GENERATOR" content="Quanta Plus">
         <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
       </head>
       <body>
         <p>
          <a href="https://www.instXY.ac.lk/privacy.html">Privacy Policy</a>
         </p>
         <?php
         
         foreach ($_SERVER as $key => $value){
            print $key." = ".$value."<br>";
         }
         /*foreach ($_ENV as $key => $value){
            print $key." = ".$value."<br>";
         }
         foreach ($_COOKIE as $key => $value){
            print $key." = ".$value."<br>";
         }*/
         ?>
       </body>
     </html>

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

Enable attribute by remove comment from the related content into "/etc/shibboleth/attribute-map.xml" Disable First deprecated/incorrect version of persistent-id from attribute-map.xml

Enable Single Logout

Change <Logout> 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:
```
<Logout asynchronous="true" outgoingBindings="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:bindings:HTTP-Redirect urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:bindings:HTTP-POST urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:bindings:SOAP">
  SAML2 Local
</Logout>
```

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

<p><a href="https://sp.instXY.ac.lk/Shibboleth.sso/Logout">Logout</a></p>

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

To be able to login to your new SP, you must enable it from your IDP.

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

<bean parent="SAML2.SSO" p:encryptAssertions="false" />

Then restart the tomcat

To release specific attributes for a SP you can add it to /opt/shibboleth-idp/conf/attribute-filter.xml

Consult Service Provider guidelines and https://fr-training.ac.lk/attribute-filter-LEARN-Production.xml on deciding what attributes you should release.

Reload shibboleth.AttributeFilterService to apply the new SP

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.
