Answer 1

Rakesh,
I'm still struggling with this problem, but at least let me mention things I've learned:
1. AppIntegrator (as we know it from 7.0) is not in CE 7.1. CMIIW.
2. To implement SSO to a web application, you can use two methods:
      -  first, appending user/password in url parameter (this is very much unsafe!). What you'll need to do is to create a HTTP system in the System Administration menu of Portal. Assign a system alias to it. From then on you could use the options in URL iView to send user mapped username and password as URL params. You'll also need to specify the user mappings in User Management menu.
       -  second, read the sap logon ticket inside a SAP cookie called MYSAPSSO2. The ticket is encoded in base64 and you can get the Portal user name from it. If you use the same username for the backend system, you can use that to implement SSO. I haven't figured out how to use another username though.
