is there any web service present for authnetication using wso2 - wso2

I am new to this wso2 evaluating wso2,
I am using Identity Server I have web application , want to apply web SSO feature using WSo2, I had check there are soap web service present in wso2 for UserAdmin,
https://server-info:9443/services/UserAdmin.UserAdminHttpsSoap12Endpoint/ using soap client for test , for dev have to write java client for request
but did not find any web services related WEB SSO for example I require authentication web service which will accept Username/password return some token information and using that token I can store in session for single sign out
Is there any web service/ API in wso2 provide authentication? or what is best approach for implement SSO using wso2 for web applications.
Thanks

If you are looking for SSO with WSO2IS, WSO2IS supports several standard ways to achieve it. They are,
SAML2 SSO
OpenId Connect
OpenId
Passive STS (for windows based applications)
From above, most popular way is to use SAML2 SSO or Openid connect. Your web application also must support to talk with WSO2IS using above standards. Say, if you need to achieve SSO using SAML2 SSO. You application needs to send the SAML2 Request and process the SAML2 Response in standard way as mentioned in SAML2 SSO spec. You can find a sample web application that has been implemented to work with WSO2IS from here. This blog contains all configuration details that you need to do in WSO2IS side as well. You can even use the sample web application with other SAML2 IDP as sample web application is talking in standard way. Also. if you are looking for Openid connect, you can find another sample web application from here with config details. I hope this would be a good starting points for you.

another way to connect with WSO2 IS

A few days ago, I started to work with WSO2 Identity Server in my project as an authorization server in my architecture, I found that it can be interfaced with an external data source like LDAP, then I can use the enterprise LDAP instead re-create all users and roles in WSO2 IS.
My question is about authentication on WSO2 IS, when the user authenticates on WSO2 IS and approves access normally this is done by HTTPS protocol.
I don't know if it's possible to use another authentication protocol like Kerberos or Radius to connect to WSO2 IS?
by default the WSO2 IS on the frontend supports OAuth 2.0, SAML 2.0, OpenID and WS-Trust STS protocol. They are indeed all based on the HTTPS. Next to that you may use Kerberos KDC.
For Kerberos configuration you may check this article. http://wso2.com/library/articles/2012/07/kerberos-authentication-using-wso2-products/
g.
WSO2IS has the kerberos support [1]. But it doesn't support RADIUS yet.

SAML and OpenID SSO with WSO2 Identity server

I'm trying to achieve SSO among different application. The applications are:
API Manager 1.7.0 Store
API Manager 1.7.0 Publisher
Liferay 6.2
I managed to configure Liferay to login through Identity Server Openid and to configure API Manager to login through Identity Server generated SAML Token as detailed in API Manager documentation.
The SSO is working well between api store and api publisher.
The problem is that I can't achieve SSO between Liferay and API Manager. If I login to liferay with openID and I open the store or publisher URL the user is asked for username and password again.
How can I configure the IS to implement the desired scenario?
Thanks, Paolo
Are you using IS 5.0.0 version? Normally it would create a same session for all the login in IS 5.0.0 version. it means, if you login with OpenID, SAML2 or OAuth2, it does not matter, IS creates a common session for given user. Normally it should not ask the password again. If it is asked, it can be a bug. Can you just check whether there is a cookie called commonauthid in the browser? If you are using some older version of IS, you can enable the this property <AcceptOpenIDLogin>false</AcceptOpenIDLogin> in identity.xml file

Does WSO2 Identity Server expose an endpoint/URI for XACML requests?

Does anyone know if the WSO2 Identity Server exposes a web service endpoint/URI to which I can send XACML requests via HTTP(S)? I am aware that they provide an API for doing this, but I have a situation where I can't use that, but I can do HTTP requests.
Thanks,
Jim
P.S. For the record, I think I've found my answer, mostly deduced from this page:
http://wso2.com/library/articles/2013/11/fine-grained-xacml-authoriation-with-pip-points/
That page tells how to enable WSO2 to unhide the WSDL for the EntitlementService web service.
Yes, you can enable the entitlement service wsdl and call it from external systems according to your requirement to send requests. By default this admin service is disabled. You can read more about it at PDP PEP Communication – how WSO2 Identity Server defines

Web service authentication

I have written my web services using apache axis2. Now I want to make my web services secure to avoid unauthorized access.
Is there any way in apache axis by which we can redirect each web service request to a particular web service ? so that it will do authentication and on successful authentication it will forward the request to respective web service.
Thanks,
Ajinkya.
you can use Apache Rampart[1] for this. Instead of redirecting to another web service you can use UT (user name token) to authenticate the uses. Using WS-Security is the correct way to secure a web service. This[2] would help you.
If you interested WSO2 AS[3] provides a integrated environment for web service deployment and add security using its GUI. Further since it is based on WSO2 carbon platform you can integrate your user store with WSO2 AS and then authentication is provided out of the box.

OpenSSO SSOToken to SAML assertion and back

I'm considering securing a whole Java EE software platform with OpenAM (prev. Sun OpenSSO). Applications - running on WebLogic AS - would be secured by a JEE Policy Agent and web services with WS-Security SAML Token Profile.
As of my understanding, the SSOTokenManager enables application code to retrieve OpenAM's SSO token. But in order to invoke the SAML protected Web Services, I need to obtain a SAML Assertion from OpenAM. Can anybody tell me how to do so ?
Also, in the Web Service code, I may need to get back a SSO Token from a SAML assertion. Is that possible ?
You should be able to achieve both conversions using OpenSSO's Security Token Service. There is a tutorial for configuring it.
The SSOToken is an internal OpenAM representation of a users session, whilst a SAML token is an asserted identity with associated information. As such, these are not directly translatable in the way you describe.
In order to obtain a SAML token for use in your web service call, you should look at the STS functionality in OpenAM. The is a standardised service that will authenticate users and then make an assertion about the identity and authentication of the user, represented by a SAML token. This token is then returned to the calling entity (the web service client) who can include this token as per the relevant WS-* standards.
You may also want to look at the OpenAM wss provider or the Metro/WSIT library to assist implementation on the client side.
