Automatic authentication by cookie
|
|
|
| Hello,
I would like to set up an automatic authentication using an encrypted cookie (with user Id, last connection Date...).
Do you know how can I set up this on WebSphere Portal 5.1.0.1 ?
Many thanks,
Tom | |

| One possibility is to write your own Trust Association Interceptor (TAI), assuming you are using portal's standard security. Check out this link:

I am not actually doing any password validation against our LDAP because I trust that the reverse proxy has taken care of authentication, but if you actually need to authenticate, you probably have a little more research ahead of you. There are also LTPA
ramifications you might need to worry about if you depend on it for SSO. If you don't have either of these issues, TAI is amazingly simple to implement.

| Thanks for your reply. I just develop a custom TAI to handle cookie authentication. The cookie is also secured to prevent modification.
Best regards,
Tom
