Implement AuthenticationHandler and AuthorizationHandler that deals with your application specific authentication and add these handlers under RequestFlow in your wsdd file. These handlers can implement authentication in whatever way you desire. We are using this to authenticate against ldap, but you should be able to do the same with MySQL.
