Hello Group
I have a problem concerning single sign-on.
I have an application (C++/Win32) which goes through a web service. This
app
needs to authenticate an active directory user. At the moment the user's
credentials are entered into the app and it sends this as a reqeust to the
web service which authenticates the user against active directory.
There is a need for this to happen transparently. Basically when the user
logs into Windows, it would be ideal if my app could tell the web service
that this user has authenticated and send back some kind of token (without
the password) which the web service could use to verify that this is in
fact
an authenticated user. This would enable single sign-on for out app.
What I would like to know is if there is any way a user security token or
something similar could be sent to AD for validation.
Cheers
Win
