Hi!

Actually, I want it to work the other way round, i.e. we don't have a java 
application login page because the user is authenticated via the .Net 
application (-> via IIS and integrated windows authentication). We integrated 
our java application to that windows (Asp.Net) application. If the user saves 
something on our page f.ex., we call an Asp.Net site for that we need the 
username / password for IIS. But we didn't know how to retrieve those 
information on java side. What we tried was the NTLM filter for Tomcat which 
seems to authenticate, but how can we establish an URLConnection to IIS with 
the right credentials:

|-----------|                           |---------|                             
        |---------|
|   Java    |   ----Request---->        |  Java   |   ----URL Connection---->   
| Asp.Net | ----authenticate----> IIS   
|Application|                           |Connector|             Problem: How to 
                |Connector| 
|-----------|                           |---------|             get 
credentials?                |---------|     <--------------retrieve infos ----- 
WebService
      |
        |
        |               |-----------|
        |--------->     |   Tomcat  |
                        |-----------|

It's getting clearer now :-/ ?
