Greetings everyone,
Off late I found out that it was the "REAL JASON HUNTER" from his
previous e-mail "...techniques from my Chapter 12". It makes this list very
exciting !.(Thanks to your book, many are finding the niches of servlet
programming) My Question...
I am presently working on authenticating login users to my site using
servlets. I would like to know how to achieve this through servlets using
SSL. I understand that JAVA has the JSSE ver1.0 which does the SSL. Can
anyone help me in this by providing a brief step by step procedure on how to
authenticate users ? I am giving the users the option of many e-mail
providers which say
"Click here for a secure login".
1) Does this mean that the auhentication is done only for the login and
redirect the port to 8080 for all other requests (like getting info from
database. (in this case ORACLE 8i? or
2) Re-write all servlets using the same procedure(https) port 7070 in JWS ?
3) Can I run both the servers (8080 and 7070) on the same server ?
or do I need to install JWS on another machine just for the secure
authentication and redirect to the other server with 8080 port for all other
requests ?
Any small suggestions would be appreciated.Chapter 4 of Jason Hunter talks
about this but I couldn't find on how to authenticate the login part. I am
confused.
I am using JWS,Oracle 8i.
Thanks
Krishnan Srinivasan.
