Is there a good/standard/any way to create a [Tomcat] Website that can use
JCIFS to provide Single Sign On for MULTIPLE domains. In other words, for
the website to determine which company the user is coming from, and then to
target that company's Active Directory using JCIFS for authentication.
As I understand it, JCIFS runs at the site level, which means that it can
only work with a single LDAP/Active Directory host. [We have it working in
this way]. However...
Let us assume that a single company has aquired 2 other companies. They
operate 3 separate active directories, all be it in a forrest. The Web site
allows people from all 3 companies to access it. Once the web has
determined which company the user is from, then it needs to do a JCIFS
lookup for sign-on.
Is this even possible?
