Ideally I am hoping, its possible that once someone logs in at their Windows terminal and attempt to access the Internet-Intranet URI they will be prompted by HTTP authentication and even better automatically be signed into the PHP application using the same credentials provided at Windows login. Because the PHP app needs to be accessed via the Internet as well, I would still need those credentials passed to the auth script in order to authenticate external users.
What Im thinking is hopefully Windows caches the credentials of logged in users and can somehow send those details to my PHP application using HTTP authentication or similar...
I have never done anything like this before so if anyone can offer any details or explanations that would be awesome. Obviously I am missing tons of specifics so any help is appreciated
Cheers,
Alex
