- authentication: the customer has integrated Win32 authentication
Under IIS 4.0 (I think) I used automagic NTLM authentication to talk to cgi scripts. Setup IIS to protect the directory that contains the wk adapter w/ NTLM security and the username will be a variable in the envrionment (server dictionary) Just make sure you run a check that the client is authenticated via NTLM first.and wouldn't like to enter the user accounts twice. Does a webware app fit in such an environment?
Sorry, I don't have any experience with that, but some Googling may help. If you can use IIS to authenticate URL's, you won't have to mess with it in python at all.
I used the wkcgi.exe in production, and with the number of users you have I don;t think the adapter will impact performance much.
I would not recommend trying to implement NTLM in your app code. Now that Mozilla supports it I'm sure MS will be changing the spec soon to break compatability.....
