Hi all, Any help on this one will be greatly appreciated.
We're running a Tomcat 3.3 installation alongside/via IIS4 on NT with a view to migrating from asp to jsp in the near future. Our current issue is that we're attempting to access the 'Authorization' header in a JSP via IIS Here's as far as I got: - JSP page checks for the 'Authorization' header. - if it exists, and is of type 'Basic' authentication, extract the base64 encoded username - DONE!!! - if it does not exist, or is not 'Basic', throw back a WWW-Authenticate BASIC / 401 response This results in IIS throwing back the basic authenticate request & IE doing a 'Basic logon' dialog box, for which I can enter my LAN logon. So far so good. The problem is that when the request headers are presented back to the JSP page, the 'Authorization' field is set back to NTLM, not Basic. Any suggestions on why this is happening and how we might work around it? Thanks again.
