Any experience of using SPNEGO SSO with WebSphere Portal?
Dose it work?

There are a couple of SPNEGO Java libraries available that you can use.
Mustang has SPNEGO support, unfortunately - there's no way to upgrade the
IBM JDK to a Sun one in a supported fashion.

The key to doing what you want would be to write a Trust Assoc Intereceptor
(TAI++). The only problem you'll run into is the provisioning aspect as
even though a Subject is created by the TAI, Portal will still check to see
if the user exists in the WMM repository.

For people planning on-demand provisioning, you can easily write a Servlet
Filter (bound to the /wps/myportal context) that will add the user profile
info through the PUMA SPI if you know it went through your custom SPNEGO TAI
implementation (couple of simple ways to do this).
