I don't know if this is possible, but this is the scenario:

I have an Apache web server with Basic authentication configured to use a Postgres database. Web application A (written in Perl) uses it.

Web application B (written in Java) runs on Tomcat 5.5.20 on a different physical server, it uses a JDBC realm with basic authentication once again to connect to the same database and authenticate users.

The user cannot distinguish between the two applications, they have a common appearance.

What I need to do is authenticate users once (on either server / application), and allow the users to navigate from one application to the other (I don't want to ask for passwords again). Can the servers share a realm or is there a connector component or something I can use.

Thanks for your help,

Peter
