I was wondering if it is possible to establish a session at login that would allow that user to access webscripts in the webscripts home without prompting them for a username and password?
Hey David, There are a number of ways to do this. Firstly, how are you consuming the webscripts. If you are consuming them with some type of Java client I would recommend using the HTTPClient for Jakarta commons.
This client affords you the ability to use preemptive authentication. You can also use connection pooling and other goodies.
Also, you can authenticate using the alf_ticket parameter. Just pass the parameter in with a valid ticket. I can't recall where the specifics of this are.
Also, security concerns aside, you could just open up the webscript with no authentication.
