Douglas Jose updated JCR-2773:
------------------------------
Attachment: http-digest.patch
Implementation of HTTP digest authentication
> HTTP digest authentication support
> ----------------------------------
>
> Key: JCR-2773
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-2773
> Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Douglas Jose
> Attachments: http-digest.patch

>
> I have extended Jackrabbit to allow HTTP digest authentication through
> WebDAV, as Windows 7 can't connect to a WebDAV repository using basic
> authentication.
> The implementation is based on Tomcat's source code (I have used it as a
> reference to implement the same authentication handling in Jackrabbit). I
> hope that's not a problem.
> In order to enable the digest authentication, you need to:
> - Change the WebDAV servlet from
> 'org.apache.jackrabbit.j2ee.SimpleWebdavServlet' to
> 'org.apache.jackrabbit.j2ee.DigestWebdavServlet' in the web.xml file;
> - Change the LoginModule to
> 'org.apache.jackrabbit.core.security.simple.DigestLoginModule' in the
> repository.xml file
> - Add the parameter 'passwordsFile' to the DigestLoginModule with the path of
> the passwords file.
> - Add to the passwords file created above the user id and the password
> digest. The utility DigestPasswordUtil in the jackrabbit-jcr-commons project
> can be used to generate the entry to be appended to the passwords file.
> java -cp target/jackrabbit-jcr-commons-2.2-SNAPSHOT.jar
> org.apache.jackrabbit.util.DigestPasswordUtil user realm password
> The DigestLoginModule configuration is optional, I believe the
> DigestWebdavServlet should work normally with the SimpleLoginModule which
> accepts any credentials.
