Hi,
once upon tested PERL we had experience some problem on involving CGI-
PERL in order to manage Kerberos with PERL with a WEB APPLICATION.
We want to know what do u think about involving JPL for calling perl
(interface to kerberos) from JAVA (Web Application).
According to you which is the better solution between CGI-BIN and
JPL??
Thanks in advance guys!!!
Best regards,
Andrea
