Hi, you can take a look at jaas.config and the interface LoginModule. If i remember well, jaas doesn't manage authorisation. You have to do it by yourself. Maybe you have to store the authorisation in the jcr. take a look at the repository.xml and samples class : <AccessManager class="org.apache.jackrabbit.core.security.SimpleAccessManager"> <!-- <param name="config" value="${rep.home}/access.xml"/> --> </AccessManager> <LoginModule class="org.apache.jackrabbit.core.security.SimpleLoginModule"> <!-- anonymous user name ('anonymous' is the default value) --> <param name="anonymousId" value="anonymous"/> </LoginModule> Jérémi -- Blog: http://www.jeremi.info LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/profile?viewProfile=&key=1437724 Project Manager XWiki: http://www.xwiki.org skype: jeremi23 -- msn et gtalk : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
