  | Ok in this case you have no choice but to go the Tomcat Valve/Custom 
Authenticator route.
  | 
  | This is the only place you can actually grab hold of the Tomcat Session and 
populate it with the Subject/Principals that will be propagated through to 
Portal.
  | 
  | Basically you have to simulate what the container managed security is doing 
inside of your own code, and not use container managed security.
  | 
  | The sample interaction would be something like:
  | 
  | 1/ You have a Tomcat Valve that post-processes the request on your 
Authentication Servlet
  | 
  | 2/ In this Post Processing, it will grab information populated by the 
Servlet and populate the Principal/Subject just the way the container does for 
Portal when using standard JAAS mechanism
  | 
  | For a look at how this is done, look at the Authenticator source code of 
Tomcat and you will be very much enlightened ;)

Thanks Sohil. Let me look into the Tomcat source code and see if I can do 
something similar to get this working. Will let you know how goes by COB and 
hopefully, it goes well....
