Container based authentication is the idea that the container (jetty, tomcat, etc.) is used to authenticate the user rather than using the ESME internal (Open-ID, username-password) methods. For example, if container authentication would be active then the user can sign on via an external corporate single sign on mechanism and then ESME would take the information from this system and use it as the user id. This may be associated with the use of a corporate LDAP. You might want to take a look at Lift's LDAP support to get an initial impression of what is necessary. Until I get back and do a full spec in JIRA for container-based authentication, ESME 108 might be easier to work on On Sat, Aug 7, 2010 at 1:13 AM, Imtiaz Ahmed H E <[email protected]> wrote: > Vassil, > > I have been tutoring myself just a bit on stuff related to ESME-214, > container-based authentication, and would you be in a position to tell me > *exactly* what needs to be done to make this 'resolved/implemented'.
