Hello everyone,

Tomcat 7 has a built-in Windows authentication support (https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/windows-auth-howto.html). Has anyone get this working with JIRA or Confluence and can give me some hints?

Regards,
Tim

Hi Tim,

You might want to have a look at the Integrated Windows Authentication for Apps using Crowd (IWAAC) plugin: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.cleito.iwaac/server/overview

IWAAC provides your Windows domain users with automatic logon on any application using Atlassian Crowd as its user management system, including Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket Server (previously known as Stash), Bamboo, FishEye, Crucible, Jenkins and G Suite (formerly Google Apps).

You can download IWAAC and test it for free at: https://www.cleito.com/products/iwaac/

Regards,

Bruno
