Description

This module allows NGINX to work with Shibboleth, by way of Shibboleth's FastCGI authorizer. This module requires specific configuration in order to work correctly, as well as Shibboleth's FastCGI authorizer application available on the system. It aims to be similar to parts of Apache's mod_shib, though Shibboleth authorisation and authentication settings are configured via shibboleth2.xml rather than in the web server configuration. To enable this module after installation, add the following to /etc/nginx/nginx.conf and reload NGINX: load_module modules/ngx_http_shibboleth_module.so; Alternatively, you can enable all installed modules by placing this line at the top of /etc/nginx/nginx.conf: include /usr/share/nginx/modules/*.conf;
