Troubleshooting SSO

In this article, you will find guidelines to assist you with the Single Sign-On error in Salesforce. 

Single sign-on is a process that allows network users to access all authorized network resources without having to log in separately to each resource. Using Single Sign-on validates your username and password against the client’s database. Normally these errors are due to inputting the wrong credentials, not being connected to the VPN (Handy SRW, Dizzion SRW, or GlobalProtect), or not being connected to internet through an ethernet cord.
