Hi

I have written a Java web application which has a basic password login screen. This works fine, but I would now like to allow users into my system if they have previously authenticated against Active Directory. I.E. if they can provide a valid kerberos ticket, I'll let them straight through. NB I do not maintain the instance of Active Directory; it actually belongs to another organisation.

Could anyone suggest a good way for me to do this. I guess I need to address the following:

1) How will AD pass it's ticket to my system?
2) How will I verify the ticket? (GSS-API?)
3) I know MS have done some dodgy things to their tickets (non-standard flags). Do I need to worry about them for this reason?


Oh, and just a side-note - one could sit down and WRITE a SPNEGO authenticator, just noone has done it, yet.

Nix.
