Cross-site login

I am looking for a module that will allow users to login in another drupal site using their login credentials that already exist on my main drupal site.

It would be even better if I could redirect users to the other site/server and them being logged in automatically.

Shared Sign-On

Shared Sign-On - http://drupal.org/project/singlesignon. I haven't used this but it is the basic module for the kind of functionality you're looking for.

The above module and its releases were removed for security reasons. The successor = http://drupal.org/project/sso

I just tried SSO but it

Johnubis - October 12, 2009 - 07:08

I just tried SSO but it appears to be designed for multisite configs with both sites on the same server. The setup I have are two completely different drupal sites in different locations. SSO has potential but its backend is the database server itself. My hosting on the main site doesn't leave the mysql port for me to even work with this module by modifying it.

Is there anything else that can be recommended?

Shibboleth?

I just came across the Shibboleth Authentication module (http://drupal.org/project/shib_auth) due to a security warning (don't worry this one is fixed in the most recent version). It looks like Shibboleth (http://shibboleth.internet2.edu/) might allow for the kind of functionality you're looking for

Shibboleth is an Internet2 Middleware Initiative project that has created an architecture and open-source implementation for federated identity-based authentication and authorization infrastructure based on Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML). Federated identity allows for information about users in one security domain to be provided to other organizations in a federation. This allows for cross-domain single sign-on and removes the need for content providers to maintain user names and passwords. Identity providers (IdPs) supply user information, while service providers (SPs) consume this information and get access to secure content. -Wikipedia

but I didn't look into it in any detail.
