Hello,
I have a question on how I am able to set the following, regarding the web
application that runs under Apache Tomcat, 'Opengrok'. The idea is to set a
hostname for 'localhost:8080/grok', so when users try and access the page via
the hostname, they are prompted for authentication of their username and
password.
I have currently configured the server.xml to connect to LDAP. I have added
below the configuration on my server.xml. I am unsure as to where to go from
here, how I will be able to link the hostname. I have changed some values in
the information given for security purposes.
<!-- Adding the following for OpenGrok -->
<Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.LockOutRealm">
<Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.UserDatabaseRealm"
resourceName="UserDatabase"/>
<Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.JNDIRealm" debug="99"
connectionURL="ldap://<host> "
connectionName="ldap@company "
connectionPassword="password"
referrals="follow"
userBase="DC=<company>"
userSearch="(sAMAccountName={0})"
userSubtree="true"
roleBase="DC=<company>"
roleName="cn"
roleSubtree="true"
roleSearch="(member={0})"
allRolesMode="strictAuthOnly"
/>
</Realm>
I have checked the web for blogs and asked other tomcat groups but was not able
to get any answers.
I am aware that the version of Apache Tomcat I am using is outdated and has
reached its end of life. Though necessary, I cannot update to a newer version
of the application due to some issues.
Hi.
I believe that you are confused about 2 separate topics : "hostnames" and "web application
security".
It is the web application which is "protected" by a userid/password login requirement, not
the hostname.
This page of the on-line tomcat 6 documentation provides some hints :
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/realm-howto.html
In the "Quick Start" section, you will see that in order to "force" someone to
authenticate in order to use the application, you need to specify some things in the
web.xml of the application.
And in the "Example Application" section, it points to an example application that has
these things.
Maybe you can start from there ?
And for the "host name" part, see this section :
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/virtual-hosting-howto.html
But that is a different issue.
