Hi Patrick, why do you not write a servlet that reads the user info and redirects to login/proxy. We are planning something like this.

Hi List We have Jetspeed 2.1-dev up and running. Right now we have a login portlet which simply submits the username/password to login/proxy and everything is working great. Now, I would like to upgrade the login portlet to be able to automatically authenticate a person from some information stored in a cookie, like a remember me sort of thing. My first thought was to store their username, and encoded password which could be read by my login portlet and forworded to login/proxy for authentication. However, since I can't send a redirect from within the doView method this won't work. I have tried all sorts of things trying to simply authenticate a user from within a portlet, and not having to submit a form to login/proxy. Is there any way to accomplish this? Am i even looking in the right direction ? Surely somebody must have done something similar in Jetspeed already. Any help/comments are very appreciated. Thanks Pat
