hi,

Hi,

We have configured reverse proxy with Apache HTTP
server i.e user requests (via HTTPS) are recd. by
webserver A, which are then sent (via HTTP) to
webserver B, where they are forwarded to Tomcat.
Now the problem, we are facing is of double
authentication i.e once a user is authenticated with
1st web server via LDAP, another login screen pops up
when the 1st webserver forwards to request to 2nd web
server.

is it really necessary that you authenticate the user on webserver b ? why you dont switch authentication off at this Systeme ? how dose your application authorize the user ( cookie, sessionid, etc ) ? try to set an additional http header at webserver a RequestHeader set "HTTP_USER_ID" "%{USER}e", user the header to authorize the user.

regards




Can anyone provide some input into this or point me to
where more info can be found.

Thanks,
