there are different approaches based on your security needs if you open your TC webapps you will subject yourself to Man-in-the-middle attacks which would be time-consuming to detect and quite costly to your business
have you thought of an alternative approach perhaps some other Secure front end such as mod_ssl http://www.modssl.org/ and then allow access after they have properly validated? Another approach is to protect all sources via assignment of User/groups to Roles where roles would identify which resources one could add which resources one could delete which resources one could change which resources one could view an all-in-one Portal Single-sign-on such as Jetspeed would accomplish that objective http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed-2/ Martin Gainty ______________________________________________ Verzicht und Vertraulichkeitanmerkung/Note de déni et de confidentialité Diese Nachricht ist vertraulich.
