Hello everyone,

I'm trying to figure out how to create a small Admin Area protected by
a password (that could be hardcoded or stored in a xml file, it
doesn't matter) inside my application.

My application is basically a TabbedPanel that contains 4 or 5 panels,
some of them communicates with plain Java servlets and so on.

Now, what i need to do is a simple form that can authenticate the
admin and let him upload some files and do some other things. What i
wanted to do is to create another GWT class with some widgets inside,
but i don't know what is the best (or simply the easiest) way to do
that.

I read about using Basic or Form Tomcat Authentication, but in my case
is not possible (is it?) due to the fact that if I add the Admin Area
like a new Tab inside the TabbedPanel, with tomcat auth, every user
that would like to use my app should authenticate himself (what i
learned is that with tomcat auth you choose an entire page to
protect).

Yet, if i make another Module or try to set another Entry point
(didn't understand well how), using the Admin Area like another
application, would be more complex, and i'd prefer to create a unique
application.

I was wondering if i could use plain Java servlets, GWT servlets
(async ones), because i know that with php it would be easy to make
but i don't know how to mix php with gwt so i'd prefere to use another
method.

I hope i explained myself well, if you need any further explanation i
will give you as soon as possible.
Regards
