Does JBoss Negotiation integrate with Apache's mod_auth_kerb?
JBoss Negotiation does not currently support falling back to FORM or BASIC authentication. Therefore, we are currently experimenting with setting up an Apache server with mod_auth_kerb (which has the option to provide basic authentication) and then re-direct the user to our application running on JBoss. I know this is a bit outside the JBoss realm, but do you know if it is even possible to pass a Kerberos ticket obtained by Apache to Tomcat/JBoss?
