saml user can not access the OSGI web console even through related user group added into Apache Sling Web Console Security Provider

Hello, 

I enabled the saml in AEM 6.0 sp1 platform, so every user will not use the AEM local authentication for login. But some of the users they want to access the OSGI web console, I add those users to the admin group, and have admin group been added to "Apache Sling Web Console Security Provider", but saml user still don't have access to the OSGI console. If I use AEM local user, it works.

I think for OSGI web console accessing, it's default local authentication, it seems like AEM can recognize local user, but not for non-local user.

How should I handle this?

Osgi web console have integration with basic http only. Addidtional with saml integration password is not stored in AEM repository.  You need to develop a plugin using websecurityprovider & not available out of the box.
