I found a good open-source library for auth*: http://kasai.manentiasoftware.com/ Has anyone used it? Looking at the source and API docs, it's decent and supports several backends out of the box, including MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQL Server (which covers Sybase too). I'd rather use it than put my own together :) It uses http://www.scribblin.gs/software/sysauth.html to provide a PAM interface (which can then hook into LDAP/AD/etc. securely); an example of SysAuth use with JBoss is at http://www.mrchucho.net/2004/12/27/jboss-linux-authentication/ Unless there are any objections I'll use Kasai.
