Hi, To spread the load, my application is installed on several servers, each of them managed by Tomcat (7.0.26). On top on that, a load balancer ensures the traffic is correctly distributed evenly.
The tomcat configuration is set with Digest authentification. The problem I'm facing is that the digest authentication looks to work fine for one single server , but for with multiple. Indeed, when a specific server of the pool is receiving the request and returns 401 + the nonce, this same server must receive the second request (with the authentication) to get a success. If another server of the pool is receiving the second request, it will be not able validate the user/pass because the nonce does not belong to it. Is there a way to share the nonce between servers so they can act as one? I would like to get your advices , how to make a multiple server deployment running with Http digest. Thanks, Xtof
