Yes, as both Patrick and John suggest, Hyrax depends on Tomcat for
security. Here's the documentation on that: http://docs.opendap.org/index.php/Hyrax_-_OLFS_Configuration#Authentication_.26_Authorization
The C++ library and new C client-side library (and thus new netCDF DAP
access) support cookies which is, I believe, what is required for
single sign on systems, although more might be required on the server
side.
