I am looking to perform Basic authentication for a webapp thats protected by
CAS. Some external client applications attempt to read some information from
the CASified app. The external clients can only do basic authentication. I need
to be able to return a 401 for the initial request from the client app and when
the app sends the credentials (user name:password), I need to verify them and
return requested information. One way to do it would be to have an uncasified
servlet handle the request and do the initial handshake (return 401 etc) and
then use the Restful api to get the credentials verified, get TGT, ST and
finally the protected data.
Is there another (standard/recommended) way to do this?
Thanks.
