SharePoint 2010 Claims Based Authentication Resources
I have been wanting to research more about Claims Based Authentication in SharePoint 2010 so was looking to find some resources. Foruntately it seems that there has already been quite a lot of research by the community into this with some fantastic articles (and even series of articles) been posted which have really helped me along.
So here are some links that I have found incredibly useful:

Hey nice post,
I am facing issues while configuring custom STS for sharepoint. I have created CustomSTS following the blog(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff955607.aspx). When i tried to establish trust between sharepoint and customsts using power shell commands i am getting an error stating ” invalid claim type” . I have not defined any custom claims. Any help is appreciated :0
