Ever wanted to allow your users to authenticate to Novell Access Manager using their FaceBook credentials? Here's how..

Stop minimizing the importance of access management load testing or bypassing it due to cost and time constraints. In this "Cool Solution," I'll show you how to quickly, effectively, and inexpensively put load on any Internet-facing NAM infrastructure.

Using Novell Access Manager (NAM) with salesforce.com allows your users to use their existing LDAP credentials for single sign-on access to salesforce.com as well as any web applications protected by NAM.

This cool solution will show you how to add salesforce.com to your NAM implementation using a federated authentication via SAML 2.0. By using SAML 2.0, your users authenticate to NAM as they typically do using their existing LDAP credentials provided by your corporate directory. salesforce.com then authenticates users via SAML without the need to synchronize passwords with salesforce.com. Once configured, your users will have SSO access to all your web resources protected by NAM through either the Access Gateway or using federation protocols. Unfortunately, salesforce.com does not support federated provisioning, so you will still need create users in salesforce.com. If you would like to automatically provision, deprovision, and manage the salesforce.com identities, you can use Novell Identity Manager, but that is out of scope for this article.

Do you have a ZCM primary server sitting in DMZ and would like to restrict access to ZCC? Here is the solution.

I've been doing some looking around at Squid add-ons for the first time in a long time. It appears that they've thinned out dramatically!

I'm specifically looking for a quota management tool which is compatible with a Squid/Dansguardian configuration. If need be, integration to just plain squid will do.
