Hi,

How would I go about creating a script which would allow a SOAP connection?

I need a 3rd party website to log into our system without displaying a QS in the browser.

Basically our system would allow a URL with UserID & Password on the QS and log the user in.

My concern is if you did that the URL shown in the browser would show someones userid and password.

So how do I write a script that will allow connection from a 3rd party server, log the user in securely and then redirect the browser to the extranet without showing user credentials on the QS.

I'm wondering how you go about creating such a module / script, so I can perform login securely and remotely.

How would you enforce they connect to you via a SOAP type method and not QS or post data to call the script ?

All sugestions welcome.

thanks,1DMF

Just wanted to thank you feherke.

Been assigned a new project to wrtie a task management system.

I've incorporated the MD5 hashig into the login process, it's working great!

Didn't even have to install any additional modules so Digest::MD5 must be part of the ActiveState core install.

Your help is much appreciated!
