single sign on between two different web-app running on two

[santoshkumar]

Hi,
I have deployed my secured web-application(say A) on jboss using my own custom login module.
I have some other web-application(say B) deployed on tomcat on some different machine.
my requirement is to access the web-app deployed on jboss(A) through the web-app deployed on tomcat(B) without prompting for username/password for web-app A.
or can I write a simple jsp to authenticate against jboss and get the page directly instead of getting prompt for username/password.


Please response for any such possibility or do ask for any clarification.

Thanks.

Thanks malves.
but I don't want to use any framework/tool.
Is there any way to generate some token programatically and send/redirect the url with that token to get the content without prompting for username/password ?
can I get any such sample java/jsp code ?

Thanks again.

SantoshKumar,

This what you want to do by yourself, in practice, is what JBoss SSO does for you.

Maybe looking at the sourcecode could help you. This should help you have some good ideias.
