Hello, everyone. I am planning to set up Single Sign-On (SSO). I wonder if I can use something like Red Hat SSO with two separate domains. I have one domain for Windows AD and one for Linux IDM. My idea is to use Red Hat SSO so that both domains will be able to access the same services. For example, I have one Nextcloud instance, and I would like users from both domains to use it with SSO.

    Sorry for a noobie question. But when people say using SSO for internal apps, does it mean we only need to log in once and then the various apps won’t need us logging in again? And then the browser can stay connected for however long we want it to be?

      This is typically the case. Increasingly, self-hosted apps use integrated OIDC or OAuth but for those that don’t there are various other methods of integration into the SSO provider you’re using including forward auth and remote username. Authentik is nice in that it is also a forward-auth proxy and so you don’t need to use an additional oauth proxy software like oauth2-proxy.
