Myles:
Here's a url which I had bookmarked for "future study" (whose time unfortuantely
has yet to come!!) but may be useful to you because it has lots of code (written

http://www.tapsellferrier.co.uk/Servlets/FAQ/authentication.html
Enjoy!

For what it's worth, we have implemented a method similar to what you have
detailed for apps on our public website. We also have a couple of apps which use
authentication against an LDAP on our intranet. (Btw, I don't know of any list
for this just this subject.)
