Hi,
I want to be able to add my own authentication method (login-config/ auth-method) as one of possible choices. Is it possible to do so without re-compiling tomcat? Ideally, I would love to be able to achieve my goal by changing server.xml file (and adding some jars with my custom code to tomcat).

Before any one suggested that I should write custom Realm: I think it will not work for me. My authentication method require access to ALL information available from HTTP Request (not just user name/password) also in some situations, access to HTTP Response is required as well. It looks like this method:

protected abstract boolean authenticate(Request request,Response response,LoginConfig config) throws IOException;

or AuthenticatorBase class is the best place to be.


Your comments will be highly appreciated,

Andrei Tchijov
