Hello,
My questions is how to retrieve the userPrincipal attribute from the http session in an
intranet web app.
Please read below for my setup:
We are using jboss-5.1.0.GA-jdk6. Our web server is IIS7. The connection between the 2
is working fine as we have an Internet app working.
We need to create an Intranet app. I have IIS7 Authentication set to Windows
authentication for this. Our organization uses Active Directory for our internal
authentication. Our current intranet app that uses JRun app server, doesn't require
anything special to retrieve the userPrincipal attribute from the http session in a filter
we have setup. My application only needs the userPrincipal attribute from the http
session.
So far, I have not been able to get that attribute. Can somebody help in how this can be
achieved using JBoss? I don't have to authenticate to the LDAP again as at that point
all I need is a user name contained in the userPrincipal attribute.
Thank you in advance.
