JAAS and Windows 2000 Authentication

843811Feb 1 2006
Hello,

The JAAS Authentication tutorial states that JAAS can be used to authenticate the user currently running the Java code. Can I authenticate a different user to the one running the code using JAAS? I am using Windows 2000 and am specifically interested in authenticating a local Windows user (rather than a domain user). Thanks for your help.
