RE: handling form based authentication w/ remember-me cookie

[Parmar, Dipakkumar]

Hi Chris,

You can do this using Servlet Filter.  What you need to do is write
postLoginFilter that maps to the j_security_check url.

In doFilter method, you can write your post login code after
j_security_check done is work.

Something like:
        public void doFilter(.....)

                // let the j_security_check to do it's work
                chain.doFilter(request, response)

                // do you post login stuff here

Regards,
Dipak Parmar

Subject: handling form based authentication w/ remember-me cookie


I am using Struts and building a logon page to do Form-based authentication
under Tomcat. I want to also have a checkbox for the user to check that says
"remember me" so that I can send them a cookie.  I'm not sure how to
"intercept"
the form values because I have to post to j_security_check. How can I get
the
check-box value, set up the cookie, and send them to j_security_check with
struts?

Thanks
