I'm working on a website that keeps track of upcoming homework assignments. I'd like to provide an RSS/Atom Feed that shows their upcoming assignments. However, I have no idea how I'm going to limit the items in the feed to their own, as not many feed readers support cookie-based sessions. Basically, I need to access the request object...

After asking this question, I've been trying to use NegotiateStream to authenticate a Windows client against a Java server. It seems that Java doesn't have great NTLM library support, so I've been working on the assumption that I'd have to use Kerberos, which Java seems to support much better (via the GSS-API). The problem is that Nego...

I have been asked to implement a cross site login solution in Zend Framework. I have thought about perhaps using OpenID, are there any other solutions to make a login persist across many sites? In some ways a closed system hosted by us would suit better. ...
