Hi ,
      I am try to develop a 3-tier web application , with front end being
Applet and HTML, with JSPs and Servlets.

      I have a main JSP/HTML which forms 2 frames.. one calling the HTML
having applet and other calling a plain HTML file.

      I am using LDAP authentication with Jboss3.0.4 /Jetty version.
      I am trying to create the login context in the first JSP which is
creating the frames. There i am able to get the Principal name(though it is
not authenticating). But while loading the applet it is giving
principal=null and is failing to load.
        All the tutorials mention Applet calling the ejb directly. In my case it is
getting values from the servlet which is communicating the beans. IN short
the Applets are unsigned and no involved in any operation in the client
machine.


     The questions i want to ask are :
-> How can i get the Applet to understand the security of Jboss?
-> Is the applet the root cause of this behaviour ?
-> Presently the applets are not signed , but i fail to see how signing the
applet will help prevent this ?

-> How do i get the username and password into the JSP file? i am able to
get the username, but when i try to get the password using
org.jboss.security.SecurityAssociaton.getCredential().toString() it is
returning some junk value?

-> further more the most important am i doing it correctly or do i need to
do anything else?

-> there is a patch available for LdapLoginModule .. how do i integrate it
into the JBoss version i am currently running?

Thank You
Dhiraj Ramakrishnan
