Hi Again, In the near term absence of getRemotePort, I am struggling to determine a method for storing and retrieving per-connection state.
Can anyone recommend another method for acquiring a unique connection identifier? I would be satisfied with a platform specific method at this point. Just to be clear as to why this is necessary, NTLMSSP is a three request "handshake". So if you have a frameset with 5 frames, IE will create 5 separate connections but will use the same session ID. So I cannot simply store the state of the authentication in the session because the multiple simultaneous authentication requests will incorrectly read or overwrite that state and cause strange concurrency errors. I need to store the authentication state in the session using a unique connection ID (normally getRemoteAddr+getRemotePort) to keep the simultaneous authentication requests straight. Any ideas? Is there a mod_jk or Tomcat specific feature that would allow me to get the socket file descriptor value, or port, or unique ID through HttpServletRequest.getAttribute()?
