JCFIS and Active Directory

Hi,

When users, who are logged onto our domain, access internal apps using
their browser we can authenticate them using JCIFS for NTLM, since the
user is already logged onto the domain they do not need to re-enter
their username and password. We now want to move to AD and eventually
replace JCIFS. Does anyone have any examples of how to do this ?

Thanks.

Ecto,

You can certainly use JCIFS with AD to handle the authentication. There
are examples on the JCIFS website. I've had a few problems with it
though (had all sorts of flavors of windows/linux, pretty large
network, and very busy site). I eventually had to roll my own redirect
auth scheme through an IIS box to get it working.

Since then, I've switched to Apache+mod_auth_sspi, which works
**beautifully**.
