Hi bdaw, Like dhartford, I need to use the LDAP for authentiation (username/password) only and not store any role information there. It seems like from your Use Case #1 that this is possible by just authenticating and then synchronizing users/new roles to DB, but I am confused as to what to use for my config settings in jboss-service.xml, login.config-xml, as well as identity-config.xml. Which login modules should I use and what options should I set? I am just using a test LDAP (OpenDS) for getting the proof of concept. Thanks for any advice you can give.
