Class SPNEGOAuthenticator

java.lang.Object

org.eclipse.jetty.security.authentication.LoginAuthenticator

org.eclipse.jetty.security.authentication.SPNEGOAuthenticator

All Implemented Interfaces:

Authenticator

public class SPNEGOAuthenticator
extends LoginAuthenticator

A LoginAuthenticator that uses SPNEGO and the GSS API to authenticate requests.

A successful authentication from a client is cached for a configurable duration using the HTTP session; this avoids that the client is asked to authenticate for every request.
