Not sure (haven't done it) - but that sounds like standard folder security issue, just set up a user or user group with the User Manager in windows, and change folder permissions on the server, but as far as making NT security mesh with Tomcat, I am unfamiliar with that - Tomcat uses the windows authentication in its own way (to authenticate against the tomcat-users.xml or the database defined in the realm), but integrating it with folder permissions - maybe someone else has done this?

Tomcat NT credential Hi, Thanks for responding so quickly. How about using NT User Group to authenticate access to JSP files inside a secured directory? (I will read the paper now but I thought I should ask.) Thanks again. Bao-Ha Dam Bui [EMAIL PROTECTED] S.

Tomcat NT credential You can either use the tomcat-users.xml file to define users, passwords and roles (located in the conf folder in the root of Tomcat), or use a realm to authenticate to a database, either way there is really good documentation on it at the jakarta tomcat site, it took me about 15 min to have an authentication set up against an Access database, really straightforward....... http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/realm-howto.html Geoff Geoff Peters, BScFE, AIT Phone : (441) 296-9640 Applications Developer Fax : (441) 292-1509 Logic Communications E-mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED] 12 Par-La-Ville Road WWW : http://www.logic.bm Hamilton, Bermuda HM JX -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: June 6, 2002 1:49 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Help!
