Login authenticate

[Joseph Smithern]

Is there anything in JSP I can use that will allow me to authenticate a user similiar to our Windows Intranet Domain login. I would like to emulate our Windows Intranet Domain login where a user would use their Domain username and password to get in a secure web site. For ColdFusion I am doing it with CFAuthenticate tag and I assume there is something similiar for JSP since ColdFusion is written in Java.

Read about authentication in the Servlet Specification to see if it will suit your needs.

So is your question more about the auth styles used in java or how you would like to integrate windows login credentials with a java app server ? Or is it a combination of both ?
