We use single sign for our Tomcat applications. We have another Tomcat that
hosts various web services. I would like to be able to send the logged on
users name and password as credentials to the web service and have Tomcat
authenticate it. I have tested this part with a hardcoded user name and
password and this works fine. But I need to send the username and password
used when the user logged on. How do I get access to the password that was
used when the user logged on so I can send it as part of the credentials to
the web service? Am I going to have to write custom authenticators and
realms in order to do this?
Thanks for any response.
