What are you folks using for self-hosted single sign-on?

I have my little LDAP server (lldap is fan-fucking-tastic – far easier to work with than OpenLDAP, which gave me nothing but heartburn). Some applications can be configured to work with it directly; several don’t have LDAP account support. And, ultimately, it’d be nice to have SSO - having the same password everywhere if great, but having to sign in only once (per day or week, or whatever) would be even nicer.

There are several self-hosted Auth* projects; which is the simplest and easiest? I’d really just like a basic start-it-up, point it at my LDAP server, and go. Fine grained ACLs and RBAC support is nice and all, but simplicity is trump in my case. Configuring these systems is, IME, a complex process, with no small numbers of dials to turn.

A half dozen users, and probably only two groups: admin, and everyone else. I don’t need fancy. OSS, of course. Is there any of these projects that fit that bill? It would seem to be a common use case for self-hosters, who don’t need all the bells and whistles of enterprise-grade solutions.

    I used to run key cloak backed by LDAP. Few months ago moved to Authelia and after many hours of tinkering and setting up sites I haven’t had to touch it except to add a new URL or user.

    I slightly disagree with the other commenter I didn’t find it easy or straightforward but once I finally found what worked for my setup its been great.

    Imagine Authelia is the caddy of SSO. Powerful, intimidating but very efficient. Also all configs are in like 3 files and things aren’t going to change without FS access which only I the admin have.
