That did help, thanks. The entrance hook is just what I was looking for.

Hi Ray, if you want to customize the authentication behavior and adapt your template, you're following the right path. However, don't create your own processElement method. The Authenticated elements has a whole bunch of hooks: initializeAuthentication() entrance(Template template) unvalidatedCredentials(Template template, Credentials credentials) validatedCredentials(Credentials credentials) acceptedCredentials(Credentials credentials) authenticated(long userId) refusedCredentials(Template template, Credentials credentials) sessionCreationError(Template template, Credentials credentials) sessionNotValid(String childTriggerName, String[] childTriggerValues, int validityId) Both refusedCredentials and sessionCreationError have default implementations that set the appropriate validation errors in the template, so if you want to preserve this, you need to call the super method in your own version. More info here: http://rifers.org/wiki/display/RIFE/Authentication+system+internals Hope this helps.
