I'd agree. Have your UserDetailsService implementation hit LDAP for authentication, and pass GrantedAuthorities[] on to the returned object by asking DB2 about that info if the user is authenticated. jk On Tue, Mar 10, 2009 at 6:44 PM, Wes Wannemacher w...@wantii.com wrote: On Tuesday 10 March

Let me get this straight: All pages in your webapp are protected (not available to non-logged in users), so when someone who is logged in on the company's main site tries to get to a page in your webapp, JAAS catches it and sends them to your webapp's login page, which might be able to glean

Yea, but in this case, it may be something we need to live with. The login page scriptlet code looks for the login credentials in the request and sets the appropriate form fields as well as a flag we use to indicate whether the form should be submitted immediately upon loading and in either

I believe you are absolutely correct Laurie, because I've not yet seen a way to get a handle to the LoginContext to call logout(). All we can do is invalidate the session - which we do when the user logs out. This removes the user principal from the request and indicates to JAAS that the

If you mean protecting the page w/ a security constraint, I think that would be a problem in that JAAS would detect that it's a protected resource and prompt the user to log in before hitting the login page and upon a successful login would redirect the user to the login page after they've
