Hi Tom,

Thanks a lot for the immedate feedback.

The site which I am try to access is also running a Tomcat Server. The
authentication is Session based. The site uses the http protocol.

I am using JSR168 Portlet (Not sure this answers your question on what
type of Portlet). Kindly let me know which Portlet should I use for
this requirement.

What I am trying now is just a logging in to a site through a Portlet
by giving the Login credentials. I will be doing the SSO for the same
once I am sucessful in the last step.

Thanks once again.

Rgds,
Siva

Hi Siva,

I have done a little work in the Jetspeed Single Sign On area and I might be
able to help you, but first I need to ask you a few questions. How does the
site that you are attempting to access store your authentication? It may
pass your browser a cookie, set a session object, or some other method. Not
all methods of storing a user's authentication have been tested in all
areas. Second, is this site an https:// or an http:// site? The https://
sites is one of the areas that I am currently looking into, at least for the
SSO components. Third, what type of portlet are you using to access this
site? It may be just that there is a better portlet type to use for what you
are trying to accomplish.
