--- Comment #16 from Stefan Mayr <ste...@mayr-stefan.de> ---
At the time I wrote this realm I did not know of any other role name mapping
add-ons. I'm not sure if Michael's solution already was public. Although I
don't need it anymore the use case is still valid.

Initial starting point:
- LDAP (e.g. MS Active Directory) with group names we have to use
- a third party application using fixed role names we cannot change either

To make a solution (realm, filter, listener, ...) solve the above problem it
needs to be configurable in server.xml or [enginename]/[hostname]/[appname].xml
(Context) with a mapping definition outside of the application. The point is to
not change the application.

After a quick look into Michael's documentation I'm only concerned about the
placement of the default config in WEB-INF/role-mapping.properties. As an admin
I would expect to look for it in the conf folder.

When you have settled which approach is best let me know what I should do. As a
non-programmer it will just take me some time until I get it done.
