Changes in URN namespace for Easy Install CD v1
If you use the Easy Install CD v1 (Dec-Jan 2005/2006 release) or earlier, then you will need to make a change in the URN namespace in your configuration file.
Recently, MAMS has been granted permission to manage the "urn:mace:federation.org.au" namespace. For correctness one should always be using properly registered URN. Unfortunately, until recently, the URN for the level 1, 2 and 3 are NOT registered urn. As a result, we would now like everyone who is registered to the MAMS Testbed Federation to make the following changes to their
IdP and/or SP. Basically, we are making the following changes:
- Old Level 1 URN: urn:au:testfed:level-1
- New Level 1 URN: urn:mace:federation.org.au:testfed
- Old Level 2 URN: urn:au:testfed:level-2
- New Level 2 URN: urn:mace:federation.org.au:testfed
- Old Level 3 URN: urn:au:testfed:level-3
- New Level 3 URN: urn:mace:federation.org.au:testfed
Assuming your DNS hostname is xyz.com then,
- If you are running the IdP, then you would need to modify idp.xml found in $SHIB_IDP_HOME/etc directory, and make the following changes:
- Change all occurrences of "urn:au:testfed:level-1" to "urn:mace:federation.org.au:testfed". This will affect three places: "providerId", "defaultRelyingParty" and "RelyingParty".
- If you are running the SP, then you would need to modify shibboleth.xml found in $SHIB_SP_HOME/etc/shibboleth directory, and make the same changes:
- Change all occurrences of "urn:au:testfed" to "urn:mace:federation.org.au:testfed". This will affect only 2 places: "providerId" and ""
Once you have made the changes to your
IdP and/or SP, please download
the latest metadata from
here and replace it with your existing metadata.
