public class sign

extends SG8Servlet

A servlet for signing on or off of a gateway context. This servlet enables users to establish an authenticated connection with a directory server and have it stored with their session. If the session is not encrypted, the servlet will throw an exception. If the request does not name a context and object, the servlet will also throw an exception. Otherwise, a corresponding L3DPath bean is constructed and passed through the session to the authenticate JSP, which will in turn send a request back with account binding information or the indicator to sign off as appropriate. If signing on, an authenticated connection is created and stored in the session for use in the other servlets and the request is redirected to the action indicated in the path. If signing off, the authenticated connection is removed from the session and the path is resent to the authenticate JSP.
