Is it possible to authenticate through the WebDav client with a JAAS Subject?
Here is the scenario:
- Our Java Swing application can authenticate to WebLogic with either a userid/password or a certificate
- Once authenticated, WebLogic returns a JAAS Subject
- We then pass the Subject back to WebLogic with every call
- We have the Slide.war running in the same WebLogic instance
- I would like to pass the same Subject back to WebLogic on every WebDav call
Is this possible?
If it is, will Slide understand the Subject or do I need to configure
the Slide server-side JAAS module also?
My guess is that this is all up to the container implementation. If WebLogic returns a subject with the response then I assume it has some special way to handle requests that contain it. JAAS support in Slide is limited to a LoginModule implementation. A LoginModule concern is limited to checking user credentials and associate those credentials with principals. The rest is up to the container.
