O Blog how I have neglected thee

November 16, 2011

Ok so I have neglected my blog a bit. You all saw the news that Ensynch is now part of Insight. Wow the same day we announced the merger (9/19), I was also given word that my uncle and cousin died in a plane crash, that wound up making the regional news. Later my kids earned their trip to Disneyland, so we took them in early October. One of our architects had to disengage from a big project (for personal reasons) and I needed to step in and play that role too.

Calling a stored procedure in an ADFS claims rule

September 1, 2011

After you have setup your SQL Attribute Claims Store in ADFS. If you want to use it and in fact test it you must set up a claims rule that makes use of it. To do this you must create a claim using a custom rule, which allows you to employ the claims rule language. The following technet entry is a good start as it illustrates how to enter a SQL Query and even a stored procedure.
