I believe you can only do this if the user belongs to the same domain as the web server is in. That way the credentials are passed in the background from the logged-in user to the domain and authentication happens in the background - you would never notice it, if authentication did not succeed the

1. I think the IP idea is a bad one, because, as you said, they can be spoofed. Plus what if they're using a dynamic IP? 2. I think you can use a combination of 2 and 3; Use public key authentication to establish identity at the start of the session (you can bind that to an IP if you wish), an

Hi,   Can anyone tell me whether I am right by making the following assumptions;   To make sure the proper client is talking to our server over **HTTPS** with XML I can do the following to authenticate them: - validate their remote IP (apparently can be spoofed??) to the one we have on file -

how about a slightly different approach? store all the pdfs outside of the webroot. Then when a user logs in, create a symbolic link to the pdf uuid.pdf points to the pdf outside the web root. Then on session close (CF7) delete the sym link. Then you can use CF based authentication not IIS stuff.A

I'm very interested to see if you come up with a solution for this, we've been looking for something just like this. Something that I'm still looking into, but it may be possible for the pdf document to talk to the container page when your using the embedded approach. So, maybe create a new o

Not really what I'm after... I guess I want to set the value of 'cgi.auth_user'. I want to 'authenticate' the user, so they don't see the authentication dialog box.   It's looking to me that all this authentication is done client-side, so perhaps CF won't help me in this case.   thanks!

I ask in case of any performance reasons not to do so. I've left behind (previous project) an important tool/CFC that uses this "leave behind query" method in important areas. If I've made a faux pas in doing so, I'd like to know On 4/10/06, Andrew Mercer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > that
