The IBM sample programs either (1) invoke HTTP Basic Authentication, which allows Internet Explorer users to save their passwords, permitting unauthorized users to sign-on using cached passwords, or (2) result in non-persistent verifications requiring users to present credentials at every page change. We need persistent verified user-id and no stored passwords. >> CLICK for Jim's expert response: http://search390.techtarget.com/ateQuestionNResponse/0,289625,sid10_cid497686_tax285032,00.html =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= WEB-INTEGRATION FORUM | Run multiple Web servers on one stack?
