On our document management system we use SSO and I also configured FF for auto login. Now that I extended the DMS with a feature which should load content from the Repository via SharePoint-Module in our E-Mail Client we would need a browser independent solution (or at least for FF and IE).
If I use Internet Explorer the SSO authentication session is automatically used by Windows to authenticate against the Network Adress of the DMS and the documents are loaded into the E-Mail Client without any problems.
In FireFox this is not working because the E-Mail Client can not access the Repository. I think that FF is not passing the session to Windows or anything like this. The workaround would be to open the SharePoint-Adress of the DMS at least once in Windows Explorer and manually authenticate against it (username + password).
We would need a browser independent solution without any additional authentication prompts.
Or is this a IE-only feature from Microsoft?
Best regards and thank you very much, Pali
