LDAP Access Control

My site is running Java System Directory Server with an ACL to control access to certain parts of the site. When users browse to those areas, an username/password dialog appears.

There is a certain customer who needs to be given access to any part of the site without logging in. Due to the fact that the syntax is no longer valid, I am looking to be able to give this customer a link that will automatically authenticate them against LDAP and create their session, so that they can browse to restricted areas without logging in.

I have tried to create a Perl script that has credentials hard coded and will log the user in, then forward them, but after the forward, the login dialog still appears.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
