I'm running 3.0.7 JBoss with the default Jetty integration and am writing a 
struts based web app front end to an EJB application.

I have been trying to find out how form based authentication works and have 
read a lot of articles and mail items from various lists and am confused 
about a couple of things.

Do I have to provide an action class and a form class for the login form or 
does the web container handle this, ie: do I have to point j_security_check 
to an action that I write? If not, why do I keep getting "Cannot retrieve 
mapping for action /j_security_check" errors?

Do I have to provide the form with the j_username and j_password fields for 
the login or does the web container handle this as well.

I believe that I have to provide some code to pass the authentication details 
onto an EJB container when I call into a bean. I'm not sure what this code 
is. Any examples? I thought I saw one once during my searching but cannot 
find it again.

thanks,

brian wallis...
