NT user authentication
 

My JAVA applications are running on the Weblogic application server in Linux environment. I need to authenticate NT users through a windows domain controller when users invoke those applications. I am looking for APIs (e.g. Java or C, C++ ) that I can call to pass user name and password to the Windows domain controller and verify users.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,

Ok I may be looking at this too much but is it Java or C hooks you want for auth thru a DC or Weblogic to auth a user to NT?

If it is from a language point there are tons of API tools available out of the box in the SDK for most. If it is BEA's Weblogic server to do the auth that is NTRealm for Weblogic. You can read about it here at BEA's site.

Actually my JAVA applications, running on a weblogic server in Linux, must do the authentication programmatically using a JAVA API. Would give me names of those API tools?

Thank you very much for your help.
