[1.2.4] SSO via NTLM

Hi all,

i have a question concerning the way of implementing Single Sign On into
the Authoring area of Lenya.
I just included the NTLM Filter into the context of lenya and it works
fine on Tomcat 5.5.17.
I get results in the catalina.out that the current username of the
workstations getts authenticated agains my ad2003 server und I am able to
get the start screen of lenya.

When I want to enter the authoring area of the publication I get the login
screen.
My question is how i can map the credentials in a way that my
authentication is directly used and the login screen is not shown.

Thank you for your advice in advance...

Best regards,

Phil

You have to implement a custom authenticator and patch cocoon.xconf
accordingly.

Here's an example:


<xconf xpath="/cocoon"
   unless="/cocoon/component[@role = 'org.apache.lenya.ac.Authenticator']"
   remove="/cocoon/component[@role = 'org.apache.lenya.ac.Authenticator']">

   <component logger="lenya.ac.authenticator"
     class="org.myproject.lenya.SSOAuthenticator"
     role="org.apache.lenya.ac.Authenticator"/>

</xconf>
