Authentication with Slide - Slide vs tomcat Realm
United States	2007-09-14 04:13:31
Hi I need to authentication with Slide, there are two ways I can see I am thinking of using Slide realm and configuring tomcat to use Slide user database for authentication. Otherwise if I rely completely on tomcat realm, typical tomcat-users.xml file based, authetication, I need to add user two places - Slide and tomcat-user, which is problem. Can any body suggests on #1 how can I configure tomcat to use the Slide users for authentication? #2 how can I actually autheticate request of tomcat programatically, is any API available? What I am looking for is authenticating user with Slide. Any suggestion is valuable for me.

Hi Satish, look for JAAS-Authentication that is a standard API that works pretty well with tomcat.

Hey Arne Thanks for quick reponse. Do you mean here that I should take steps below to implemnt authetication, - configure Slide realm, configure tomcat to use Slide users for authentication - configure JAAS for tomcat - use JAAS API to authenticate the requests, so here JAAS will ask tomcat for authetication -> tomcat will check Slide user database Is is somthing gonna happen...?

Hi Satish, things are easy, if you look at the used technics: Silde is a servlet in tomcat and uses the authentication mechanism of tomcat. This includes such nice things like the sso-Valve. What you have to implement a user management that does both: 1. Creating/Deleting the user in silde by just creating/deleting a collection with the user name in /user (default value). Tip: Look at the powerful roles mechanism in slide. 2. Doing the JAAS-Authentication. This is how we did it here.

Hi There were problem in environment variables, I set all environment variables correctly and its seems to be working Now tomcat is understanding Slide user database, tomcat-users.xml not required anymore for authentication. I was checking this using DAVExplorer but now I need to implement and use API for authentication, so Is that JAAS package will help me in this, shall I need to use those API for authentication from my custom jsp client? Do you have any idea how can I directly use same authentication way like DAVExplorer using?

Hi Satish, we have to discriminate between the client- and the server side. If you have a successful login with DAVExplorer the server side is now working properly. On client side you can easily access an address that is protected with basic authentication using the commons-http-client.(see http://jakarta.apache.org/httpcomponents/httpclient-3.x/ ) For authentication look at http://jakarta.apache.org/httpcompone nts/httpclient-3.x/authentication.html Hope that helps Arne Satish schrieb: > Hi > > There were problem in environment variables, I set all environment > variables correctly and its seems to be working > > Now tomcat is understanding Slide user database, tomcat-users.xml not > required anymore for authentication. > > I was checking this using DAVExplorer but now I need to implement and > use API for authentication, so > > Is that JAAS package will help me in this, shall I need to use those > API for authentication from my custom jsp client? > Do you have any idea how can I directly use same authentication way > like DAVExplorer using? > > > Regards, > Satish > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From kiltesh patel <mailto:kilteshgmail.com> > To Slide Users Mailing List > <mailto:slide-userjakarta.apache.org> ; Satish > <mailto:satishharbinger-systems.com> > Sent Saturday, September 15, 2007 10:15 PM > Subject Re: Authentication with Slide - Slide vs tomcat Realm > > Hi Satish, > > try this... > > 1. 5) Set environment variable > CATALINA_OPTS=-Djava.security.auth.login > .config=$CATALINA_HOME/conf/jaas > .config > > In place of = use == to set catalina_opts > > 2.

Re: Authentication with Slide - Slide vs tomcat Realm
United States	2007-09-27 07:42:21
Hi Arne, I manage to authenticate with http client 3.1, latest http client library with JAAS module. But I could not get webdav resource now. Upon searching on the forum I found Slide is not supporting http client 3.x libraries. I am trying with the typical JAAS authentication with LoginContext, where I am getting error as not able to create LoginContext since could not able to locate the login configuration. Do you have any idea how we can use the http client library, which is easiest way - or it is the limitation of Slide.

I implemented my own JAAS authentication, so it might be different to your case. If would get that error-message it will stress on not finding my JAAS implementation. I your case maybe the JAAS-Implementation you are using has a problem. In general speaking it could not be a problem of the version of http client, because basic authentication is standardized and well implemented in that client.

Re: Authentication with Slide - Slide vs tomcat Realm
United States	2007-09-27 08:13:01
Hey Arne, Thanks for quick response. Well I am using JAAS module from Slide site, they have made it available for authentication with Slide. I did all configurations and tested by accessing from the browser and DavExplorer, its working well. JAAS module responding preety good way. I then tried making HTTP based authentication using 3.1 lib and its also working fine. Later I just was requesting webdav resource where 3.1 lib is configured in my app, and I was getting error with Slide as Bad Request. Then i replaced this http 3.1 lib by older version and could get webdav resource. But now I cant authenticate since AuthScope is not there in older version. JAAS is working fine but this is strange problem.
