All,
I have a situation like this:
Web Server A has protected content, I dont have control of Server A, but...
the owners of server A would like me to provide a level of password
protection on my web servers (Server B), that when a user successfully logs
into my Server B, can redirect to the protected content of Server A.
The owners of Server A want the password dialog to pop up only once, when
the online user first hits my Server B. If all is hunky dory there, I'd like
to redirect that user to the protected content on Server A.
Something like:
1. online user tries to load protected resource on Server B (possibly a
servlet).
2. user gets login dialog. User enters userid/password. This is verified on
Server B, if OK, then redirect to the Server A protected content. Do this
without forcing another authorization dialog to popup from Server B.
Is there a away I can use a servlet to negotiate the authorization to Server
A based on the successful access to Server B?
Any ideas, suggestion, even if it is not servlet based, would be
appreciated. Thanks,
Mike
