Hi,

Is it possible to protect a page(login.jsp) in weblogic like IIS, So that whenevr the user clicks the login link, the windows login popup should come up, once the user enters the valid windows userid and password ,it should allow in the system. If it is possible, How can i get the userID from the POPUP in my JSP.

Thanks,
Prabhakar P

Hmm, are you talking about Windows security realm authentication, or are you talking about browser-based HTTP authentication?

I don't think there is a direct way to do Windows authentication in a J2EE app, since that is platform-specific.

You can certainly authenticate users with HTTP authentication, which also involves a username/password dialog. See this thread: http://www.jguru.com/faq/view.jsp?EID=1131436. It discusses Tomcat, but the part about web.xml will be the same for Weblogic. The rest you should be able to figure out from Weblogic's documentation.
