I don't know if this is an approprate forum for this or not, but here we go.
We have the IBM version of Apache on our AS400 system. From what I have seen it runs basically like the "standard" Apache with the same configuration file layout.
We want to have user authenication on the AS400 HTTP server, but we also want to create our own login using servlets on a NT tomcat server, which would connect to the AS400 HTTP server after logging in. And we want to do this in one sign on instead of two.
We would like to know if there is a way to do a post to the AS400 HTTP server passing the username and password. We know this can be done via plain text through the URL, but we need this to be secure. What are the parmeters that are needed to be passed if this can be done?
I hope I explained this clearly enough. BTW, this is for an intranet, but there is a later posibility that we might put this on the internet. So security is # 1.
