Hi,
I've created a web application that has certain folders that need to be protected. I've set it up with BASIC authentication, and added the users and groups via the WebLogic console. This part works fine, but what I really want is to use NT user details. I've tried to set up an NT realm, but I'm not having much luck.
Here is what I've done. Could somebody tell me if I've missed something, or if I'm just going about this the wrong way. I'm pretty new to all this stuff, so you'll probably have to put it in simple terms.
Ok what I have done is :
* Created a NT Realm, and entered the domain where all the usernames and passwords are retrieved from.
* Created a caching realm for the NT realm.
* Changed my web.xml so that the realm for the BASIC authentication is the same as the caching realm.
* Changed the principal names in my weblogic.xml so that they match the workgroups defined on the NT box.
Is this all I need to do?
Some information that might matter :
* I'm trying this one two boxes - Box A & Box B
* Box A = WebLogic Server 6.1 SP4 on a UNIX machine
* Box B = WebLogic Server 6.1 SP3 on a Win XP machine
If you need to know anything else let me know.
