Has anyone encountered this scenario in DNN 7 and SmarterTrack Enterprise 10.1:

SSO is implemented following Santiago's step by step instructions. However I've been spending a lot of time trying to figure out the following caveats:

(1) Once Joe goes to SmarterTrack after being authenticated on DNN, he can successfully see the landing page with "Home", "Knowledge Base", "News", "Tickets" and "Community" and his name shows at the top right corner as being authenticated. The My Settings link also works well and he's authenticated. However, if you click on Joe's name and hit Management Interface, a new window/tab opens and now Joe is no longer authenticated. The "Login to SmarterTrack" dialog shows and he's forced to login.

(2) Now it gets real ugly because Joe cannot login to SmarterTrack (see #3 below) and we are forced to login using another account that is not flagged to use SSO (the main admin account). If we try to login with Joe's credentials problem #3 happens.

(3) If Joe goes to SmarterTrack before going to DNN, the normal SmarterTrack login dialog show up but Joe is unable to login at all. After typing in his username and password and hitting "Login" at the dialog, the Login button turns into a "Please Wait" and never comes back. Joe is forced to login to DNN first then go to SmarterTrack. I've checked the WebServiceURL in Smartertrack login provider and it looks good. It's http://www.MyDnnSite/Login.aspx and that URL works fine when you navigate to it. I think SmarterTrack was supposed to redirect to that login page (as it correctly does when you click forgot password).

(4) The final problem is not a big deal but I thought I'd post here.  Our SmarterTrack super user (administrator) is NOT setup to use SSO and yet if that user logs into DNN then goes to SmarterTrack the user is already authenticated on SmarterTrack. It's almost if the user flag to accept SSO authenticate is being ignored. Again no biggie on here but just a heads up to the community. 

(5) Another heads up if you happen to make your super user SSO like I tried and you see yourself locked out of SmarterTrack  Management Interface (remember SSO only works for the landing page and account setup) due to all the problems above, you can go to SmarterTrack database, open st_Users table and change AuthenticationType back to 0 (normal) as opposed to 2 (SSO). I figured this out after having to re-install SmarterTrack due to the lack of non-SSO users that could login into the Management Interface. 

I'd appreciate if anyone out there has a solution for these, especially #s 1, 2 and 3.
