Is it possible to use OpenID for both .NET web sites and PHP websites (Apache/Linux)? I have a manager that wants single sign-on for access to any/all web sites, regardless of which web server hosts a web site. I create .NET web apps and the PHP web sites/apps are done by another programmer. How would I go about using OpenID for a .NET web app? What about for the PHP programmer?

A: 

use the following library:

You can use OpenID for all sites, regardless of platform. Use this for ease of login (it's javascript): https://www.idselector.com/

For your .NET sites, dotnetopenid works nicely. For PHP you can use the code from here: http://openidenabled.com/php-openid/

OpenID uses the URL to identify the site - not the technology.
