I have solved this problem using JBoss Portal - my solution is sketched out here. The basis of the solution is you will need to do 3 things.
1. Develop your main portal page including login portlet. Create appropriate security constraints in web.xml (require FORM based authentication, etc.) - our 'main' portal page (and portlets) will be packaged in .war file and we access it under the context: http://myserver:myport/portal/myportal/index.html a.) in your web.xml (I modified JBoss's jboss-portal.sar/portal-server.war/WEB-INF/web.xml as I wanted to replace the entire look-and-feel of the portal and apply my security constraints - you can make similar modifications to your own portal web.xml. ), add security constraints for your page: | <?xml version="1.0"?> | <!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC | "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN" | "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd";> | <web-app> | | .... | | <security-constraint> | <web-resource-collection> | <web-resource-name>Authenticated</web-resource-name> | <description></description> | <url-pattern>/myportal/*</url-pattern> | </web-resource-collection> | <auth-constraint> | <role-name>Authenticated</role-name> | </auth-constraint> | </security-constraint> | | ... | | <login-config> | <auth-method>FORM</auth-method> | <realm-name>Odyssey SMF Portal</realm-name> | <form-login-config> | <form-login-page>/login.jsp</form-login-page> | <form-error-page>/login.jsp</form-error-page> | </form-login-config> | </login-config> | | <security-role> | <role-name>Authenticated</role-name> | </security-role> | | </webapp> | | b. Sample view.jsp for your login portlet (which use in both your main portal and your login portal) SEE NEXT POST - OUT OF SPACE HERE 2. Develop a second portal, let's call it /login/*, packaged in its own war - this second portal needs a copy of the page you designed in step 1. and it needs to be created as the default page (in login-portal.xml) for /login/*. We will access (indirectly - described below) using this URL: http://myserver:myport/portal/login/ 3. Modify your JBoss Portal installation: a.) In */jboss-portal.sar/portal-server.war/login.jsp change it to redirect to your login portal (here is my login.jsp) <% response.sendRedirect("/portal/login/"); %> b.) Create */jboss-portal.sar/portal-server.war/logout.jsp and put this code in it: <% session.invalidate(); | response.sendRedirect("/portal/myportal/"); | %> | NOTE: View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3897941#3897941 Reply to the post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=posting&mode=reply&p=3897941 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Power Architecture Resource Center: Free content, downloads, discussions, and more. http://solutions.newsforge.com/ibmarch.tmpl _______________________________________________ JBoss-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-user
