Hi,
we came up with some issues while trying to integrate Waffle with our web application and hope that we would be able to get some advice here.
We are trying to make use of SecurityFilter to authenticate users to our application.
There are 2 groups of users using our web app. First group are those with valid Active Directory credentials. The other group do not have Active Directory account, but have account registered through our web app. Hence users can be authenticated via Active Directory or through the database of our web app.
For users who have valid Active Directory credentials, SSO works perfectly. However, for users (i,e. 2nd group) who do not have valid Active Directory credentials, they would be prompted for username/password by the browser. They should not be prompted as they do not have Active Directory account.
So our question is, is there any way to disable the prompt for username/password? We have a login page and would prefer to direct users who failed SSO to our login page, instead of having to enter their credentials in the browser's prompt. Our login page would be tweaked to authenticate to both Active Directory or to the web app's database.
We understand that mixed authentication is available but that does not really meet our requirements as there is no SSO then.
Thanks in advance!
