SPNEGO authentication

Hello,

We are evaluating Sling and it looks very promising so far. We are just
hitting a couple of hurdles, a major one is the user authentication.

We have a TomEE server that uses SPNEGO <http://spnego.sourceforge.net>to
authenticate users for our normal applications, how can we use that to
authenticate Sling requests when running Sling on TomEE?

Hi Jalal,

I don’t know anything about SPNEGO. But you can implement your own authentication handlers.
https://sling.apache.org/documentation/the-sling-engine/authentication/authentication-framework.html <https://sling.apache.org/documentation/the-sling-engine/authentication/authentication-framework.html>
https://sling.apache.org/documentation/the-sling-engine/authentication/authentication-authenticationhandler.html <https://sling.apache.org/documentation/the-sling-engine/authentication/authentication-authenticationhandler.html>

I hope this helps.

Henry
