Persistent User Login
Hi, I was asking about this subject on this list a while back http://www.mail-archive.com/tomcat-user%40jakarta.apache.org/msg111700.h tml but I've not managed to get it working yet. In short. I'm working on an intranet application and I want my users to only have to log in once. If they start a new browser session it should pick up their details and not ask them to log in. I expect the username/password should live in a persistent cookie, and I've been using FORM based authentication on Tomcat 4.1.23. I've spent days faffing about with redirects from servlets to j_security_check (which has never worked for me) and filters on / etc. etc. etc. I came back to this today and played with Single Sign-on and Persistent sessions in the hope that might do it. Does anyone out there have this working? Best regards Chris - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

J2EE 1.4 SDK (which contains Tomcat 5) uses the Single Sign on feature and it is working fine. So just add the SingleSignOn valve in your server.xml. -- Jeanfrancois Chris Ward wrote: Hi, I was asking about this subject on this list a while back http://www.mail-archive.com/tomcat-user%40jakarta.apache.org/msg111700.h tml but I've not managed to get it working yet.

RE: Persistent User Login
Thanks. I should have mentioned that I am running Tomcat 4.1.24 with jdk1.3.0_02. I did want to make use of the Tomcat features for authentication (i.e. FROM method, Realm using user/roles DB tables, web.xml configuration etc.) to replace existing code that I wrote for the task. I'm losing the will to do this now though. Anyone done it with this set up? J2EE 1.4 SDK (which contains Tomcat 5) uses the Single Sign on feature and it is working fine. So just add the SingleSignOn valve in your server.xml. -- Jeanfrancois - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
