It is form-based but it uses Jasig CAS SSO as the solution and not a basic authentication method. So the way it works is if the application lacks either a valid session or a service ticket parameter it redirects to the login page. What I’m trying to do is create a servlet from webserver#1 that takes a user to the login page to create a session and upon successfully authenticating I want to run a nutch script against webserver#2. However, I’m not sure if that will work.
