Hi all,  
say you have gateway **GW1** where Project **PJ1** is a perspective project the operator starts normally from. Sometimes the operator needs to access Project **PJ2** on gateway **GW2**. He then clicks on an menu item whose `target` prop is set to  
`http://GW2ip:8088/data/perspective/client/PJ2/showtab/2`  
The first time the operator tries to access _PJ2_ on _GW2_ he is asked for _username and password_. Thereafter if he goes on with the same browser session, he can go straight to _PJ2_ view.  
Question: since both gateways are getting users/roles from the same active directory through an AD Identity Provider, is it not possible to pass the very first login, i.e. that on _GW1_, _PJ1_, through to _GW2_ and suppress the second login request?

Thanks in advance, regards

I think not.  
It'll be a browser security thing. If it was allowed what would stop an Internet site "borrowing" the credentials from one of your open tabs and ...
