Hi, thanks for reply, well, what i need is to know if the authentication was successful or not, I want to get the status of that authentication, I just need to know that status and has to be before the authentication mechanism continues.
I am trying to invoke j_security_check from inside another servlet. Any suggestions about how resolve my requirement? Thanks in advance.
