Wordpress auto sign-on with IIS7 and a plugin

Read Original

This technical article details a solution for enabling automatic single sign-on for a WordPress blog platform hosted on Windows IIS7 and SQL Server. It explains how to configure Windows Authentication in IIS7 and overcome the challenge of anonymous authentication precedence by developing a custom WordPress plugin. The plugin uses HTTP headers to trigger Windows Authentication for users on the local LAN using Internet Explorer, allowing seamless login with Active Directory credentials.
