Our code will create the user in the jetspeed database (typicaly hsqldb) > In AD the password is encrypted so you perform only a > login/bind opearion on the specified user to check that it is > a correct password ??? It logs into the AD as a user with regular privs. Then it takes the username of the person logging into the portal and looks up that user's DN. It then attempts to login to (bind) AD with that user's DN and password. If that succeeds then the user's credentials were correct, otherwise its fails over the next server in the list (can be n number of servers). > > Regards > Peter Anders�n > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Fletcher, Boyd C.
