Many identity federations are designed to be used with web browsers. This paper proposes an approach for integrating non web-based applications with web-based identity federations using Kerberos protocol. We evaluate this approach by making NFS server available for users of SAML-based identity federation of Baden-Württemberg state of Germany. We make use of LDAP-Facade software for federating non web-based services. We have modified the web-interface component of LDAP-Facade to enable the registration with kerberized services. Our approach can be used without modifications on the client side. Copyright © 2015 SCITEPRESS - Science and Technology Publications. All rights reserved.
