Hmm, yeah, I know that the dialog pops up, if an "authorization required" response arrives, normally. Just how do I trigger the whole thing? If I use RequestBuilder, I can send a getRequest, and set an appropriate response header on the server. Just that then I have to deal with it manually in my Callback, so I don't know how to trigger the popup then and direct all further processing back to the browser. If try start off with a normal servlet, I just get a "your module may need to be (re)compiled" error, when redirecting to the GWT-Module after successful login... At least in Dev-Mode... Besides, that this is not very elegant, disconnecting the login completely from the module... I'd rather trigger the GWT-Module somehow to use the native browser authorization and use the login data afterwards...
