So we are talking about the STS own requirements for authenticating and authorizing requests for security tokens. (This would be the item 1. in Anils post right).

This is how we have currently set this up. We are currently using a username/pwd for this in the ESB but I'll look into using X509 certificate instead. 

Thanks,
