Interesting. I was thinking about doing the same thing; an APEX page so that
users/developers can reset their own password.
So in APEX is there some function that can automatically determine the user's
Windows userid (LDAP/AD)? Mgmt won't like the idea of having to enter a
userid which might be someone elses...
That's a bit...sticky. Short answer: no, but you may be able to with
some work.
I've modified this procedure
http://jastraub.blogspot.com/2008/03/ntlm-http-authentication-and.html
[1] to work on an APEX 4.x site with an Apache HTTP Server front end
running on a Windows server. However, as one might be able to guess by
the age of that page, there are some headwinds using it with APEX 5 and
Tomcat/ORDS/Linux which I haven't been able to take the time to
investigate.
There might be something newer/better/faster/stronger out there now.
Perhaps a google of "apex ntlm" might lead somewheres (one github hit
seems interesting!).
