Automatically connect to another website with Basic Authentication?
I've been researching this, and I'm not sure if what I'm trying to do is possible, but I thought that I'd ask: I have two webservers/websites. The first webserver/website is running Win2K/IIS5, and I want it to act as a kind of "portal" to the other webserver/website. The 2nd webserver/website has Basic Authentication enabled. Right now, it's also Win2K/IIS5, but could be something else later. The 1st webserver/website has access to users' username/password information, and what I'd like to do is basically to forward or proxy the connections coming into the 1st webserver/website to the 2nd webserver/website, and somehow automatically process the Basic Authentication login to the 2nd webserver/website. Ideally, once the login is complete, the 1st website would "step out of the way". I've tried a number of things, including including the username/password in the URL of a Response.Redirect, but that hasn't worked. It does redirect to the 2nd website/webserver, but I'm still getting the login popup from the 2nd website/webserver. Can anyone tell me if there is any way to do this with IIS? Thanks, Jim |
