I have a web service with Django Framework.
My friend’s project is a WIN32 program and also a MS-sql server.

The Win32 program currently has a login system that talks to a MS-sql for authentication.

However, we would like to INTEGRATE this login system as one.

Please answer the 2 things:

  1. I want scrap the MS-SQL to use only the Django authentication system on the linux server. Can the WIN32 client talk to Django using a Django API (login)?
  2. If not, what is the best way of combining the authentication?

    Either provide a view where your win32 client can post to the django server and get a response that means “good login” or “bad login”. This will require you to modify the win32 client and create a very simple django view.

    Or provide your own Django Authentication backend that authenticates your django logins against the MS-sql server. This alternative will require no modification to your win32 client but probably quite a bit of effort on the authentication backend front. A bit of research might yield someone else’s backend that you can re-use. This looks like a promising place to start – they claim that “Both Windows Authentication (Integrated Security) and SQL Server
    Authentication supported.”
