Auto Login alfresco 4.2.c

[kaguro]

Hello,

want what to do a autologin in the new alfresco version 4.2.c but I have no idea how I can do this. And how I can get the System-User-Credentials.

Has anyone an idea?

Use Kerberos if your users are logged on to a AD domain, or if you can set up an externel authentication source, use "External".

Okay this is a option that I know but I search a solution for autologin via jQuery or somsthing in JSP. Is there a way to do that?^^

If there is no way for autologin via jQuery or JSP then I will use Kerberos.

But you need to fetch the current users credentials first? Either by user being logged into a domain, and you can use the Kerberos ticket, or use an external authentication mechanism.
What you can do is to use a ticket, to fetch the ticket you still need to supply credentials. Have a look at this page http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Web_Scripts, search for alf_ticket.

Now I have to clarify first whether my boss wants to have a AutoLogin yet.
I will get back soon.
