Description
| Class Summary | |
|---|---|
| AuthenticatorBase | Basic implementation of the Valve interface that enforces the
<security-constraint> elements in the web application

| BasicAuthenticator | An Authenticator and Valve implementation of HTTP BASIC Authentication, as outlined in RFC 2617: "HTTP Authentication: Basic and Digest Access Authentication." |
| Constants | |
| DigestAuthenticator | An Authenticator and Valve implementation of HTTP DIGEST Authentication (see RFC 2069). |
| FormAuthenticator | An Authenticator and Valve implementation of FORM BASED Authentication, as described in the Servlet API Specification, Version 2.2. |
| NonLoginAuthenticator | An Authenticator and Valve implementation that checks only security constraints not involving user authentication. |
| SavedRequest | Object that saves the critical information from a request so that form-based authentication can reproduce it once the user has been authenticated. |
| SingleSignOn | A Valve that supports a "single sign on" user experience, where the security identity of a user who successfully authenticates to one web application is propogated to other web applications in the same security domain. |

| SSLAuthenticator | An Authenticator and Valve implementation of authentication that utilizes SSL certificates to identify client users. |
This package contains Authenticator implementations for the
various supported authentication methods (BASIC, DIGEST, and FORM). In
addition, there is a convenience base class,
AuthenticatorBase, for customized Authenticator
implementations.
If you are using the standard context configuration class
(org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig) to configure the
Authenticator associated with a particular context, you can register the Java
class to be used for each possible authentication method by modifying the
following Properties file:
src/share/org/apache/catalina/startup/Authenticators.properties
Each of the standard implementations extends a common base class
(AuthenticatorBase), which is configured by setting the
following JavaBeans properties (with default values in square brackets):
Realm) if this request
is part of an HTTP session? [true]The standard authentication methods that are currently provided include:
