enable smart card authentication on iis with php

enable smart card authentication on iis with php

am 27.04.2006 07:02:51 von Dan Lewis

I have a website on an intranet that uses php and all of our users
utilize smart cards for login to active directory. Can someone point
me to something that shows how to implement smart card authentication
on iis/php? Right now, the php page queries for the username/password
and checks against AD using LDAP.

Thanks

I don't know how to do this, but it should not be hard to do and does not
need PHP.

For example, I login with smartcard and websites automatically get my user
identity, integrated with NTFS ACLs, delegated for pass-thru access, etc -
it is all standard in Windows.

IIS has no authentication type called "Smart card", so what you are asking
for is definitely something transparently handled on the Windows side of
things that has nothing to do with IIS or PHP; from IIS perspective, the
browser just does the handshake with the necessary protocol and everything
else automatically happens.

I suggest search for the built-in support of Windows for this scenario - you
do not need to perform custom authentication using a PHP page to get any of
this to work.
