Hi KT,

I would like to thank you for your quick reply.

What i really need to do is develop a web interface (portlet JSR168) to
access an authentication and authorization (using roles - user can access
portlet if he has roles, and can access enterprise content if he has rights
to do that) webservice, that is running on jboss. So i need to authenticate
on webservice, and i would like to use the same login/password. I can
"force" user to insert login/password inside portlet, but if you could see
anyway to do this, i would thank you...
So... on jahia, can you see a way to authenticate on jboss with same jahia
login/pass?

But Khaled... why i get a "org.jahia.services.usermanager.JahiaDBUser" when
i log request.getUserPrincipal().getClass()? I shoudn't get Principal class?


Regards,

Ricardo Ferreira

Hi,

There are 2 types of portlets supported by Jahia: jahiaWebapps (only for
Jahia 4 and 5)and portletJSR168 (only jahia 5 and JSR168 portal). It's
better and recommended to develop a portlet JSR168.

You find the specification here:
http://jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=168

A portlet JSR168 can't access to user's password. It's not the job of
the portlet to deal with sign on.

User's login is retrieve like that:
java.util.Principal p = request.getUserPrincipal();
or
String login = request.getRemoteUser().

It's NOT possible to access  Jahia objects or classes. So JahiaDBUser
has no meaning to a portlet.
