RE: Authentication with Tomcat 3.2 and IIS4

[Barney Hamish <Ha...@ect-telecoms.de>]

There is documentation on setting up JDBC authentication/JDBC Realms:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.2-doc/index.html

One thing I found that wasn't documented you need to add 
/<app name>/j_security_check=$(default.worker)
to your uriworkermap.properties file so that the request is redirected to
IIS correctly.

Subject: Authentication with Tomcat 3.2 and IIS4


Hello, 

Using Jakarta on IIS makes the authentication through IIS not working.

I have to configure Jakarta in order to allow the access to some
directories only after an authentication. I don't want to change my
application for that, furthermore I want to use Jakarta-Features for it. 

I am also looking for information how to customize the configuration
files (*.xml) and I did not find much in some FAQs 'till now. Can
anybody tell me which configuration files are involved? Which changes
are needed in these files?

Is there an online source for my request?

Thanks
Samuel

Hello, 

Thank you for the help. Your messages helped me to understand better how
the thing is working, but the problem is still there.

I am now able to make FORM authentication (with both Tomcat 3.2 and 3.3)
but the BASIC authentication is NOT working. 

I've tried the MemoryRealm only (thanks Craig, I've tried neither
JDBCRealm nor JNDIRealm yet, maybe later, I want to make work the simple
things first).

Does anybody have an Idea?

Sincerly
Samuel

For Tomcat 4, there are a variety of places you can tell Tomcat to go vor
validating users.  Docs are included with Tomcat, and also available
online:

Hello Hamish, 

Thanks for your answer.
Do you mean, the authentification and user management with Jakarta runs
with the help of a database? Do I have other possibilities like using a
config file instead of a database?
