Hey everybody
I've spent some time going back through old archived tomcat-user mailing
lists and I haven't been able to find anything that answers my question
yet.. maybe I just wasn't looking for the right thing, I'm not sure.
Anyway, here goes.
I have a web application consisting of JSPs and servlets, and I need to put
some security/login stuff in with it. I need to authenticate to a windows
nt domain that has a big list of users that are allowed to use my
application. However, I can't seem to figure out if I can configure Tomcat
to do the authentication for me, or if I have to write some java code (using
JAAS I guess) that will do the authentication. If it's the writing java
code case, can someone point me to some useful documentation? I've skimmed
through the JAAS docs and they don't seem all that helpful for what I'm
trying to do.
Thanks, any help would be greatly appreciated!
