Abstract:  Horizontal propagation does not work if system login is not used

Description/symptom of problem:  If the user has there own login mechanism, horizontal
propagation does not work.

An application that lives in a different server
should also accept the asserted identity because horizontal
attribute propagation is turned on. However this does not
happen. The external application attempts to contact the user
registry for authentication instead. All servers in a
cell has to use the asserted identity from the first login module.
