JNDIRealm can be used to authenticate users against an LDAP (I'm guessing in this case 
ActiveDirectory).

You will, however, want to use Basic authentication, and prompt the user username for 
a username and password.

Subject: Configure tomcat for LDAP


Hi, i want to use LDAP to athenticate my users on a JSP application and
would like to know how to configure TOMCAT so that i can acces the login of
the current user through a jsp ?

for now, i have it all set on apache, in the virtual host using ath_ldap .
my problem is that the request.getRemoteUser() method always returns null in
my jsp application...
but apache writes the login of the user in the acces.log ....so i guess it
is a conf problem with tomcat...

Does anyone have an idea, or a url that could halp ??
thanks in advance
