Using SAML between Portal, ESB and backend systems of record

I am new to SAML.

We have a portal where users are authenticated. We have to pass users credentials using SAML to the ESB layer which inturn passes it to our backend systems like SAP, Siebel etc. 

These systems would authenticate the user based on their credentials and the SAML token and return the requested data back to the ESB which passes it onto the portal for presentation. 

Can anyone give me an idea on how to get started on this? 

Portal is Oracle Weblogic, ESB is Progress Sonic in our case.

Thanks

Generating SAML 1.1 Response in .net

I am a .net developer working on SAML 1.1 for SSO and I have found that I could generate SAML Assertion using the SamlAssertion class in System.IdentityModel.Tokens. But was unable to find a class/object for generating SAML Response.

I mean this class generates SAML Assertion but not the response(<samlp:response>). Is there a class which can generate the saml response,can any of you help me in figuring out this issue as our application needs a saml response to authenticate the user with the saml assertion.

Thanks in Advance.
