[flexcoders] Re: Authentication - Kerberos

[craig.drabik]

Java has a class for dealing with Kerberos -
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/javax/security/auth/kerberos/package-summary.html

Have a look at that, as it should be pretty straightforward to use it
from CF.

In this case LDAP is not an option (I wish it was).  However, from my
reading the Java Object method seems to be valid.  I must admit, I am
almost totally ignorant of Java - so I guess I will hit the books.  

If anyone has any good input on where to start with Developing the
Java object to use to interface Kerberos and Coldfusion - I would love
to hear it.

One site I found that seems to have some promising examples is:

http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-gss-sso/#2

Am I on the right track?
