I can't comment on SAML vs. OpenID particularly, since I have no experience with SAML.  But lots of folks have used OpenID to achieve SSO within their organization of web sites (on both Internet and Intranet).

Here's our situation:
  • We own a main portal, developed in ASP.Net 4.0
  • There are a few other web portals within our organization, which would like to use our portal for authentication & SSO. These portals could be in any platform: PHP, classic ASP, JSP, etc
  • And there are a few more external portals for which also we would like SSO. These external portals are well-known in advance and they are in a closed environment: meaning they would not prefer login attempts using random public OpenID authentications.

I've been going through various articles on Internet, but I could not conclude which of the following is the best option for the above scenario:
  • OpenID plus self-provider, using DotNetOpenAuth. Clients will trust only one OpenID provider: us.
  • SAML, using a library like ComponentSpace (http://www.componentspace.com/saml)
  • Any other better alternative?
All tips will be highly appreciated :)
