We use Shibboleth to allow resident scientists to authenticate to our
wikis using the university ID/pwd, and to secure other parts of our

It's been a pain - there are caching issues and users need to reload
the landing page so their identity is recognized, you need
certificates, and they need to match the hostname exactly, which
makes virtual host naming a pain.
