For your web application, it would be easier to use the Users API ( https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/java/users/ ) to handle logins rather than the way the linked tutorial suggests. For your desktop application, you can manage logins via the OAuth 2.0 For Installed Applications: https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/OAuth2InstalledApp ----------------- -Vinny P Technology & Media Advisor Chicago, IL App Engine Code Samples: http://www.learntogoogleit.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
