Self-hosted SSO (midwest.social)

What are you folks using for self-hosted single sign-on?

I have my little LDAP server (lldap is fan-fucking-tastic -- far easier to work with than OpenLDAP, which gave me nothing but heartburn). Some applications can be configured to work with it directly; several don't have LDAP account support. And, ultimately, it'd be nice to have SSO - having the same password everywhere if great, but having to sign in only once (per day or week, or whatever) would be even nicer.

There are several self-hosted Auth* projects; which is the simplest and easiest? I'd really just like a basic start-it-up, point it at my LDAP server, and go. Fine grained ACLs and RBAC support is nice and all, but simplicity is trump in my case. Configuring these systems is, IME, a complex process, with no small numbers of dials to turn.

A half dozen users, and probably only two groups: admin, and everyone else. I don't need fancy. OSS, of course. Is there any of these projects that fit that bill? It would seem to be a common use case for self-hosters, who don't need all the bells and whistles of enterprise-grade solutions.

I have several services. Home Assistant is not one as it's still a WIP for the person who's developing a solution. It works, but I'm sort of holding off until I can test it more with the mobile app.

But, to answer your question: I log into Tailscale with it. I also have it connected to Proxmox and Portainer Additionally, I have it connected to Pomerium so I can log into my FreshTomato Router with a fingerprint :) I also have a self hosted PasteBin connected to it.

So... you have applications that aren't web apps, authenticating themselves with other applications that aren't web applications? Not proxying for you, but literally connecting to do something, like perform a backup.
