I'm looking at setting up a bunch of self hosted services to replace our (self, family, friends) dependence on corporate cloud stuff. Email (custom, since none of the Just Add Server offerings do everything I need for free), shared drive (likely nextcloud, ugh), docs (likely collabora), jitsi for video, discourse for group forums, and so on.

I'd like to make all of this SSO, to the extent that it reasonably can be.

I'm probably going to use FreeIPA as the identity source of truth, but I'm finding that there are enough new things I need to learn about centralized authentication that I'm having a hard time finding a starting point that doesn't require a bunch of other context. So I'm asking for help.

Does anyone know of a good guide to these sorts of concepts, preferably available online? I'm familiar with most of the other Linux sysadmin concepts and have plenty of hardware and bandwidth at my disposal.

If you don't have an answer but have followers who might, boosts would be appreciated.
