I use this sintax to have autologin with all browser:

http://usernname:password@www.domain.com

With last patch Internet Explorer do not accept '@' char. This is a
great problem because now all my application are been not able to
perform this autologin.

There is an other method to perform autologin of browser?
Is it possible with set headers in http protol?

Ldap how can be combinated with web browser authentication?

Thanks

Yes. This works for me:

someURLConnection.setRequestProperty("Authorization", "Basic "+xxx);

where xxx is username:password encoded as base 64. For example, if the
username is "test" and the password is "test123", then

s.setRequestProperty("Authorization", "Basic dGVzdDp0ZXN0MTIz");

I tried to use Authorization or WWW-Autenticate headers, but
WWW-Autenticate open browser prompt to input userid and password,
Authorization isn't good because i use a redirect of page into
browser and so must be browser to perform request with Authorization
and no my java code.

There are two web application:
1) My web application in jsp
2) An other web application with method autentication (userid and
passowrd are inserted not by form but by prompt of browser) e script
code unknow (should be lotus domino with server ldap)

I know userid e password and i must redirect browser from my
application in this other application without browser prompt userid
and password.

Also i have looking for a cookie where browser store Authorization
data and send into request for this domain. But i dont' find anything!
So i think that this data are stored in internal cache of Browser.

It's possibile to use ldap server to perform a single sign beetwen my
web application and the other application even if it use browser
authentication and user are store in ldap server?

Thanks
