OpenVPN Authentication against SAML?

[steve.benesko]

Hello, I am exploring options here with an AWS based installation of OpenVPN
We use RSA Cloud Authentication Service which is SAML based and I would like to use this as the authentication for our client access VPN to our AWS VPC's.

I have been doing a bit of reading on ways to configure pam to speak with SAML such as this:
https://github.com/ck-ws/pam-script-saml

Before I start going down this rabbit-hole I wanted to check with the forum to see if anybody has an easier way to solve this problem.

How did you end up implementing your SAML authentication? I'm trying to figure out how to implement a similar requirement using Open Source OpenVPN with google-authenticator and a SAML provider as identity store...
