Sure is. Look up SPNEGO and you'll see that IIS is already enabled and that there are modules for Apache.

Is a good overview.

Subject: Browser login with Windows domain login
Date: Thu, 8 Apr 2004 18:51:38 +0530

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.

Thanks
Steve

RE: Browser login with Windows domain login

Have a look at mod_ntlm for apache - this should let you authenticate your users from the apache server to your existing windows domain controllers http://modntlm.sourceforge.net/ -----Original Message----- From: stevenr@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:stevenr@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 08 April 2004 16:21 To: webappsec@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: Browser login with Windows domain login Hi all Thanks for all the pointers guys/gals. I will follow them up. One clarification though, the web server is not IIS alone, its Apache from Oracle 9i App server. There is an existing IIS-based application existing, but that's not within my scope. So basically the web application would reside on Apache 1.3.

RE: Browser login with Windows domain login

Try this for Apache....SPNEGO interceptor. http://modgssapache.sourceforge.net/ Does the trick.
