[LIH] Linux UID and PWD

[Prashanth Venkatesh]

Hi ,

I am developing an Intranet solution on linux using
java servlets.
The linux users will log into my application.
The application needs to check the authenticity of
these linux users logging in.
How can i programatically(using shell/C/java) verify
the user id and password of the users logging into my
application .

With regards,
Prashanth
