Mobile > SpringMVC API > LDAP I have a springmvc application deployed on weblogic on a unix box and am using the AD from windows for LDAP authentication. now i need to integrate with other applications where authentication is required ,i cannot prompt the user to renter the password , Since the client is mobile apps , which is the best way to authenticate once for one user for all service request. For LDAP am using SSL . ? Any suggestions ? Some people referring to use kerberos ticket based service usage , but as i have read it is best for using windows based services ? I have refereed the following sites

Kerberos works well with the WebLogic server running on Linux servers.

  • Hi brian , thanks for your prompt reply . As for my understanding regarding kerberos , KDC and Ticket generation work well with browser applications on windows environment. My current environment is for a native ios app which connects to our spring rest framework , so can kerberos be used in this scenario. Also i do not require to call any windows services SPN , all i need is the authentication to be passed for another application. – codeMonk Jan 26 '16 at 07:17
  • Ok, WebLogic has what you need on the server side. Configuring the client is a different story. This answer is probably what you need: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18813517/single-sign-on-sso-in-ios-7 – Brian Ochs Jan 26 '16 at 14:52
