Hi I needed some pointers/links/tips from you folks on a problem. I have a web-based application. Is it possible to sign in a user into the browser based application transparently based on the windows NT domain login. By this I mean that when the user opens the browser and types in the URL, the client machine should automatically send the user credentials to the application. FYI, the windows domain login is authenticated against Microsoft Active Directory. If this is possible, can anyone point me to some sites/tutorials? I have googled but have not come up with anything useful, hence this mail. Are there any known vulnerabilites with this kind of approach for web based logins? Any help would be appreciated.
