Re: Authenticating a user using NT Authentication
It may be as simple as a variable scoping problem. a CFPARAM tag is being used to set a default value of Categories (no scope) to a blank string. The cfa_contentObjectProperty tag is also referencing the the variable without a scope. Its possible the two unscoped variables are actually referring to a variables.categories, and not the form.categories which they really mean. I would try changing cfa_contentObjectProperty name="categories" value="#categories#" to cfa_contentObjectProperty name="categories" value="#form.categories#" and see if that helps.

Authenticating a user using NT Authentication

RE: Authenticating a user using NT Authentication
Debbie, I've had luck setting up a User Directory under the Advanced Security Options and making it point to a specified the Windows NT domain. Do the following: (1) Create a User Directory, specifying which NT Domain you want to use. (2) Create Security Context (3) Add User Directory to the Security Context (4) Create Policy (5) Add Users to policy Then using Cold Fusion, utilize the CFAUTHENTICATE tag: CFAUTHENTICATE SETCOOKIE="yes/no" SECURITYCONTEXT="NameofSecurityContext" USERNAME="UserName" PASSWORD="Password" Then call the IsAuthenticted() function to check if it succeeded or not. This is a high level implementation. If you need, reference the Allaire Docs, but to me, they are high level implementation as well. So, good luck :) Hope this helps.
