If there was already a web container authentication available for that old thing, you could also switch JSPWiki to web container authentication.

Also see doc/aaa-diagram.pdf for a bigger picture.

Suppose that all users call a standard page to enter into JSPWiki (rovenLoginPage.jsp as an example) After some handshake with the "old & dusty auth. manager", the rovenLoginPage.jsp knows everything about the caller (user name, id, groups, shoes's number, eye's color, etc..) but here is the question: how can it force theese authenticated values into wiki engine (shoes's number is not important, really :-) )? If you want not suppose so much . . . :-) :-) I need a page who, when called, set "Mickey Mouse" as wiki user and assign him to group "mouses".
