[Building Sakai] Programmatically sign in

[Steve Swinsburg]

Hi David,

Use either the SOAP or REST web services. You could also look at using a single signon tech like CAS that would sit in front of both applications, and once logged in to the other app they are logged in to Sakai as well. That way the credentials are better protected.

Cheers,
Steve
