Title: Please help. Accessing protected url from java when using form based authentication
You
must unsubscribe yourself.
Here's
some info posted by another user about unsubscribing:
it is a little tricky to unsubscribe
from tomcat-userwhen you have changed your e-mail address and need touse
this
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
to unsubscribe. Some mail clients
like MS-Outlook havetrouble with the equal-sign "=" in the recipients
address.Here's the e-mail header you sent. If you look closely atthe
"To:" line, you will see what has happened:
> To:
'tomcat-user-unsubscribe-lmayer=' <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Your e-mail client has split the
recipients address at the "="into the display name
("tomcat-user-unsubscribe-lmayer=") andthe e-mail address ("[EMAIL PROTECTED]").
Somehow you need to make sure that
your e-mail clientreally sends a message to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
For MS-Outlook, the following has
worked for me:1. type the correct unsubscribe address into the "To:"
field.2. click outside of the "To:" field and watch Outlook "convert"the
address you typed into display name and e-mail address.3. double click on
the display name in the "To:" field, notethe wrong e-mail address in there
and adjust the e-mail addressto the correct one.4.
done.

I need to access a protected resource on my web site from
java. I use form based authentication and I was hoping that following
sequence will make it but it dos not
1. Open url to protected resource. get JSESSIONID from
headers 2. Post to /mycontext/login/j_security_check
with cookie set to JSESSIONID= and name and
password as POST parameters
3. Access protected resource again using the same session
id
Any help is greatly appreciated
Alex
