If theres nothing in wicket already you could make your own AuthenticatedWebPage class that did something similar to:
public UserValue handleBasicAuth(HttpServletRequest request) { String auth = request.getHeader("Authorization"); UserValue user = null; if (auth != null && auth.startsWith("Basic")) { String[] pair = new String(Base64.decode(auth.substring(6))).split(":"); if (pair.length == 2) { String userName = pair[0]; String password = pair[1]; try { user = userSearch.validateUser(userName, password); } catch (Exception e) { LOG.warn("Unable to validate (" + userName + " / " + password + " ): " + e.getMessage()); } } } return user; } public void sendAuth(HttpServletResponse httpServletResponse) throws IOException { httpServletResponse.setHeader("WWW-Authenticate", "Basic realm=\"bulletinmail\""); httpServletResponse.setStatus(401); httpServletResponse.getOutputStream().print("Please login to bulletinmail"); } These are two convience methods in a current struts app of mine, in the action ( or page in this instance ) I check for validation, otherwise I call sendAuth and request it. I don't have any wicket stuff in front of me at the moment so I'm not sure how easily this could be integrated into wicket. Do we get access to the raw response?
