Hi Andrey,
Use session tracking. In the login page, create your session objects
and in your
other servlets make sure that a session exists ( do not create the session
though ). If the session is null
you can be pretty sure that the user has bookmarked the page. In that case
just redirect him to the login page.
Hope this helps.
p.s. I am working on a project that implements this mechanism and it
works.
Amar..

Subject: How to force user to login
Hi all!
I have following design problem and I hope anybody can help me.I need to
develop web based
access to the database. Every user who try to work with this system need to
log in before real access
to database. It works fine with session tracking mechanism (access to
database provided by set
of appropriate servlets and beans).
But problem occurs when the user bookmarked some page and the tries to come
directly to bookmarked page.
Does anybody know the way how to prevent this and show login page instead
bookmarked one?
I think this could be implemented by processing of all request to whole
site
by one servlet, which will
further dispatch all requests, but I'm afraid this could apply additional
bottleneck to system.
