The choice to use SAML or basic authentication

Provide a pop-up window for web users to select either basic SAML authentication or username and password authentication.

Use case: The users in the Domino Directory are mixed; that is, there are both internal and external users. We want to enable internal users to use SAML authentication while allowing external users to log in with a username and password. Therefore, when logging into the web application, they should see a choice window and login based on their selection.

Note: Creating a separate internet site in this scenario is not feasible.

      This choice is available in Domino 14.0 when using Web Login with OIDC instead of SAML.

      Steps to demonstrate:

      1. Configure Web Login with OIDC per the documentation and test

      2. Set OIDC_LOGIN_ENABLE_REDIRECT=0 in the server's notes.ini file

      3. Rename domcfg.nsf to result in the "default" (yellow) session login form being used

      4. Ensure that the Internet Site has username/password authentication over TLS is enabled as well as JWT authentication.

      5. Restart the Domino server and connect to the site in question with an unauthenticated web browser. You should see the default yellow session login form with username and password fields and not one but two buttons, "Log In" and "Log in with OIDC".

      If you also enable passkey authentication for that internet site, there will be three buttons on the default login form - "Log In", "Log in with a passkey", and "Log in with OIDC".

      The domcfg template does not ship with a sample form that adds those extra buttons, but a custom login form could easily invoke the same back-end functionality as the yellow login form with a more pleasant color palette.

      With two internet sites I have to have two IPs and in a balancer I have to manage two sites, one with authentication and one with SAML authentication.

      I was wondering if it was possible, like other applications, to provide double authentication and access from the domcfg login page of choice.

      Why is another internet site notan option to solve this?
