<pre wrap="">On the lines of an "authentication service", I'm doing a similar experiment;
Using OpenID to log into an OpenSim, by way of the web login system:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Web_login_code/php5">https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Web_login_code/php5</a>
The basic gist is you go through the usual OpenID authentication
process, then once it's complete the server alters the web login key in
the userprofiles table, and sends an appropriate redirection header to a
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="secondlife://">secondlife://</a> URI.
This in effect allows for passwordless login to the server, and you
could implement a similar process either by supporting OpenID, or
augmenting your existing system. The advantage of using the web login
code is that you can either use the Students real names, or allow them
to pick their own.

that, of course, is the preferred implementation :-) --- the only
problem we currently have with that is that the 1.19 series of SL
client doesn't have web-authentication support (LL took that out after
problems with getting the web login page to load reliably in the
client, IIRC).<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi,
We have set up a small OpenSim grid here at UCI, for experimentation.
We are about to hook it up to the existing campus identity service, but
before we do that, I thought I'd ask if someone has already done something
like that, and what your experiences were.
