Look into using the NTLM authentication filter. You'll achieve single-on authentication and when you need to grab the user's username, you can use this: String username = ((HttpServletRequest)request).getRemoteUser(); Russ- -----Original Message----- From: Frank Schaare [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, April 18, 2004 6:01 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Authentification against NT Domain Controller Hi, we´re building an Intranet application running on Tomcat 4.1.30 (Client OS is Win2K). It would be very suitable to authentificate the users against the NT Domain Controller to avoid a second login. I searched this ML and Google but did not find very much about this theme. There is a SourceForce Project called NTDCRealm which seems to fit our needs, but has absolutely no documentation. Probably, we need to nest a custom NTDCRealm Tag in our WebApp context. To learn, how to do this, i searched the Tomcat documentation (http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/realm-howto.html#Standard%20Realm%20Implementations) and again, there is a gap: "It is also possible to write your own Realm implementation, and integrate it with Tomcat 4. However, doing this is beyond the scope of this document. See (FIXME - reference to developer stuff) for more information." Here are my questions: Does this reference to developer stuff exist anywhere ? Does anyone ever made the NTDCRealm to work ? Does anyone knows another (documentatet) Implementation of NT authentification ? Any hints, links, documents about this theme are warmly welcome. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
