AuthFilter Single Sign-on Support

With Single Sign-on (SSO) support, a user who successfully logs on to one site or server can access other sites and servers without logging on again. AuthFilter provides support for Single Sign On between domains, applications, and in a Web farm scenario.

Providing Single Sign-on support across domains and applications is accomplished using cookie sharing.
