Hi there, I have a somehow special problem and hope someone can help me with this. I'm currently using Acegi and Spring to authorize Users via normal FORM-Authentication mechanism. If the authorization fails, Acegi returns a proper "login_failed.jsp" page.
However, I'm now facing the problem to enable an authorization based on a JAVA application. The application will submit an XML that contains username and password entered by the user running that application (an example): <authorization-request><username value="user"/><password value="pw"/></authorization-request> The submission started from within the application will target a URL to my Spring web application. That URL should be processed by the Acegi Security Framework and then somehow return an XML containing a success or failure-message. I hope I could describe my problem and would appreciate any hints on how to solve the problem. The thing is: Acegi should authorize users on 2 ways. The first one is already implemented -> authorization directly in the web browser when accessing my Spring web application. The second one is the authorization from an external JAVA application transmitting its user credentials via HTTP to a URL relative to the root of the same web application. Thanks a lot, in advance!!!! -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/How-to-use-Acegi-to-authorize-an-external-application-%28via-HTTP%29-tf2597365.html#a7245346 Sent from the acegisecurity-developer mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
