There's a product called ClearTrust, which is a LDAP
client, you can use LDAP to store your NT logins (I
know this is done by many large corps), and ClearTrust
will manage these logins and they have a plugin you
can install on your webserver, so once you login to
NT, and logon to the website, ClearTrust will be able
to store your login as a cookie and send back to your
browser.
I don't think in Java you can get NT login directly,
unless you have some ActiveX-Java bridge thing you can
use. So without that, I guess you have to use cookie.
