is it an active directory win2k or an nt4 domain? if it's an active directory, then you can use a JNDIRealm. Otherwise, you have to implement something using Win32 api calls.

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! ~ Shaun Kenny Acadia Institute for Teaching and Technology Acadia University -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
