THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE APPLIES TO:

  • EFT v7.3.3 - 7.4.13.15
  • EFT v8.0 adds advanced properties to an AdvancedProperties.json file instead of the registry. Refer to the help for your version of EFT for information Advanced Properties.

DISCUSSION

EFT and Shibboleth IDP time servers can differ by 3 minutes. SAMLSSOClockSkewToleranceInMs is used to adjust the clock skew. You can adjust the setting for a more lenient clock skew (higher than 3 minutes). For example, if the EFT Server's SAMLSSOClockSkewToleranceInMs value is set it to 180000 (3 minutes), a clock difference between EFT and the IDP time server of 30 minutes results in a rejected assertion. The EFT server service must be restarted to take effect.
