Hi all,

I have a re-factor to do on an existing MG:U application.  This is
currently setup to interact with another CRM type application via web
services.  In fact, the MG:U application is launched directly from the
other app.  The web services requires authentication and a single user
account/password was created for this purpose. Now it appears that the
users want all interactions to be logged as their own user id and not
the default web service authentication id.  The problem with this is
that there is absolutely no way the other application will allow any
type of impersonation.

It would be possible to take the user's id and password and
authenticate with that except that a majority of the users do not even
know what their password is to the other application (they use windows
authentication most of the time, and the application password is
different than the ntlogin password).  And, some users do know their
password and know they can change it.  What is the problem with this?
The passwords are salted and hashed and not retrievable.

The last option at this point is to launch the MG:U in an iframe and
use the parent windows security context.  The web service calls will
be replaced with javascript calls to the parent frame to execute
inserts, updates, deletes.

So the issue is how to leverage the existing business logic in my MG:U
model and then pass back values to a view or make a direct ajax call.

I would really like to be able to use call the controller directly
with an ajax call to MG:U (a structured request).

Has anyone gotten ajaxCFC and MG:U to work in this manner?

If this is confusing, I apologize, I am still trying to get my head
wrapped around it myself.

Thanks,

John
