integrate tomcat with IIS (using JK2) and share user authentication information?

[Alvin Wang <xw...@qtechservices.com>]

Hi! We plan to integrate tomcat with IIS. As I read, we can use JK2. Also we
want IIS to do the authentication. However, tomcat servlet session also need
the user login information (username...). So is there a way for tomcat to
share (or retrieve) the authentication information with IIS?

Or thinking the other way around, if we use tomcat to do the authentication,
is there a way that we can prevent IIS from loading some document until
login has been authenticated by tomcat?

Thanks a lot!

Alvin

Only have the sensitive stuff served up by tomcat.

Let IIS do the static and uninteresting stuff only.
