Thanks for the quick response

How do I setup the authentication on the folders in the protected area
so that the login page is only displayed when navigation to the
protected area?

Regards,

Oliver

You need to write a jsp page which does the logging in. See the javadocs
for CmsObject, but something like

CmsUser user = cmso.loginUser(username,password);

This sets the user for the session.


Then to get the redirect you have to find in the properties file, turn
off basic http authentication and specify a login page. The page should
also get passed the paremeter "requestResource" in the event that a user
is redirected to your login page.

Hi,


This may have been asked a couple of times before, but I have not seen
any solution to this.


I would like to use basic forms based authentication for some parts of
the site so that when the user visits that part of the site a login is
required to access that area.


This will not be a exported site but running dynamically in opencms.


Something like:


1) User requests page within a folder in the protected area.
2) User is redirected to login page within opencms site.
3) On Login, the page is displayed to the user.
4) On Failure the user is taken back either to the previous page or to
the home page


I am using: OpenCms 5.3.6x and Tomcat 4.1.24


Regards,


Oliver
