We currently have role-based validation implemented for all of our RPC
calls, however, our PSG guys don't want the validation to occur on the
same machine.  Ideally, they want 1 machine to validate the RPC
request (in the DMZ), and if it succeeds, then it gets passed along
into the Tomcat instance which is deployed on the Internal Network.
Does anyone know how to do this?

Obviously one solution is to have GWT deserialize the request on the
"validation" server (DMZ), validate the request, and if it succeeds,
pass the request along.  However, this seems like a lot of work to
me.  Is there a way to inspect the POST payload and extract the RPC
call being made (as a String) and then check it against a permission
table?  I know that for the the package name and RPC name are in the
POST as plain-text, so it should be possible, but I'm not sure of a
reliable way of extracting that information.

If anyone has any ideas, I would love to hear them!


Thanks
