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

Doubt :
 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?


Hi,
Sending Cookies to the Client's machine cannot be a good way of checking
Authentication. So U can build some component which will be called by your
JSP program and the component can fetch authentication parameters from a
database.

Any better idea regarding is highly solicited.

Thanks & Regards,
