I've tested the few open source OpenID identity servers around and I personally found SimpleID to be better than phpMyId. It has a nicer user interface, can manage multiple identities and offers a secure authentication mechanism even if you're not using SSL... worth trying. Here's my post about it: login everywhere using your own identity server. Cheers

You may also be interested to know that the WordPress OpenID plugin also includes an OpenID provider, along with a consumer for commenting and logging in to WordPress. (Full Disclosure: I'm the plugin author)

Hey, glad to see that you found my post useful. I just wanted to add (in case anyone who reads your post wonders) that the two links you’re talking about are called “Delegation.” The wiki explains it pretty well, I think…http://wiki.openid.net/Delegation
