I'm *very* new to this. Please excuse me if this has been covered. I *did*
scour the archives...

I'm looking for some code (or guidance) for performing user authentication
in JSP. The JSP spec makes some vague comment about being an extension of
the servlet spec, but what does that mean? What do I need to do to
authenticate a user's login/password, send a cookie to the client and then
use the user's info in subsequent JSPs? And, more generally, what parts of
the servlet API are accessible to my code when I'm using JSP?

Thanks!
