Two more things: * Since you said twice you'd like the authorization phase go to the oracle db, what authentication mechanism should be used at with httpd? * HTTP Basic (or Digest) Authentication does not allow for a "custom login page" (i.e. forms based authentication), so if that's your requirement then you'd need to solve this programmatically anyway. E.g. CGI with a Perl Script and DBI and DBD::Oracle, or whatever. You might as well do all this in Weblogic (of which I know nothing, but assuming it can do a few things similar to Apache Tomcat) and not httpd, since then you'll have JDBC and easy access to Oracle? cheers, -peter --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
