Hi Claus, According to the official servlet specification one cannot directly link to the login form. The user must always be redirected (because he entered a protected URL) to the login form for it to work. This behavior prohibits one to have a log in form an every page. It's like this in the servlet spec and there is no way around.
However, there is an open source project called SecurityFilter, that provides a different authentication mechanism. I can't use it because it doesn't support single sign-on (they are still working on that), but may be it's good for you. have a look at http://securityfilter.sourceforge.net/ for the details. grts, Patrick -----Original Message----- From: Claus Weng Madsen - TELMORE [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, November 20, 2003 2:02 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: invalid direct reference..--problem with solution..
