I don't know of any documentation on the subject, but one way I've seen it done was to search though the http header for the sender of the request. This will (if I remember right) always be an ip address. You can then do a regex check on the ip and if it checks out let it through your gateway action or not.
I believe the java.net packages have what you need. If you down load the project at http://sourceforge.net/projects/oscarmcmaster or at http://www.oscarhome.org/ .The login java files there have a working open source example. The oscar web app allows intranet and internet users to login, but it requires a pin number(second password) from someone who is making a request from a non-intranet ip. Just ask questions on the sourceforge forum or at the forum on www.oscarhome.org if you would like some help wading through the files. ~/nick On Mon, 2003-01-06 at 22:45, icewind wrote: > Could anyone tell me how to limit access to a > particular servlet by IP address or hostname? > > Any pointer to documentation that cover this topic > would be appreciated. > > __________________________________________________ > Do you Yahoo!? > Yahoo!
