Hi,
assume I want a basic user authentication for my servlet application
and I already have the allowed users with their privileges in the
underlying database. Now, instead of synchonizing the web server's
access control list with these user lists, couldn't I just let my
servlet do the authentication? I'm thinking about the basic HTTP
method, with "401" response and challenge ..., via
HttpServletResponse.setHeader().
Will my web server interfere with this? Has anyone tried this?
Thanks,
