Seaside/Squeak authentication methods

r00t uk



Hi all

I am new to Smalltalk/Seaside and web programming in general, so I was wondering how a Seaside application can be written to authenticate users against Active Directory(LDAP), PKI, or RADIUS authentication systems?

Also, from my understanding of Seaside it appears that since all session and state data is stored on the web server and not on the client that it makes for a more secure environment with less effort.  Is my understanding correct in this regard?

Thanks for the response.

Adrian

Boris Popov, DeepCove Labs (SNN)

Our application authenticates users using RSA tokens via ACE API which was easy enough to integrate with VisualWorks DLLCC, but I'm sure similar APIs must be available in some form for other systems without needing to support LDAP etc natively.

Cheers!
