Distributed structure based multi-sites corporation web applications need a universal authentication and resources access control mechanism, and Single Sign On (SSO) System is an indispensable module for such applications. In practice, we develop a simple single sign on solution that is a central authentication system based on HTTP Redirection and Tickets, with Cross Domain Cookie Sharing as key technology. This solution plays a vital role in distributed data sharing network construction, which realizes cross domain universal user login, user authentication and user authorization. By establishing standard control module, a simple configuration file may conveniently integrate distributed network nodes into one authentication system then accomplish Single Sign On and universal resources access control.
