Start out by looking in the samples guide; there are several samples which use custom
authentication. You will need to implement a user entity bean, a role entity bean, a 
login
session bean. Each has a few specific method signatures that must be present, but not
particular interface that has to be implemented. For the user and role entities, the 
idea is
that the primary key is the principal name. But make sure you define a getName() 
method as
well.

You can't use the same source; you'll have to implement two different authentication
managers. For my app I did entity beans which talk to a SQL database for usernames and
passwords, and for the web-app side, an implementation of AuthenticationInterface which
queries those beans.
