Servlet Security Question

[Tyronne Fernando]

Lets say there are two servlets A and B. A user has authority to access servlet A, but not to servlet B. But, sevlet A forward the request to servlet B through request dispatcher.

What happens if the user access servlet A? Will he get an Authorization error on servlet A?

I like to know some of your thoughts on this. Thanks in advance.

Well i feel the user who access servlet A can go to servletB via servlet A...
But not directly to Servlet B because of authorization constraints...
