RE: Why not get my custom Principal using request.getUserprincipal()?
Hi: I don't think this is helpful but I have been trying to produce a realm for authenticating against SAP. The Tomcat documentation on the subject notes: It is also possible to write your own Realm implementation, and integrate it with Tomcat 4. However, doing this is beyond the scope of this document. See (FIXME - reference to developer stuff) for more information. All of the realms appear to be in org.apache.catalina.realm which is bundled up in catalina.jar in the server directory of Tomcat 4.x. So with some trepidation I have broken out the jar and replaced it with a set of classes in the correct hierarchy in server/classes directory. In building a new realm it seems that you have to: A) Build the realm from some template (JDBCRealm is useful) and place it in realm directory B) Modify mbeans-descriptors.xml in the mbeans directory C) Add code to the MBeanFactory class in mbeans to load the new realm Having said that, I can have a FORM or BASIC access to the realm EXCEPT that I get null values for the username and credentials. Replacing the nulls in hard code does produce a credential that performs as advertised but as yet I haven't found the piece of the puzzle that is providing the nulls strings. If there is a better or easier way to produce a new realm I too would be happy to hear about it.

Re: Custom-Principal
Hi, thanx. You did answer the question. But I didn´t know how to realize what you suggested for the embedded version of Tomcat into JBoss. I didn´t even find the server.xml. Any idea about it?

Howdy, thanx. You did answer the question. But I didn´t know how to realize what you suggested for the embedded version of Tomcat into JBoss. I didn´t even find the server.xml. Any idea about it? So you asked the exact same question? ;) JBoss uses its own configuration for embedded tomcat, not the same as standalone server.xml, and I'm not sure how to use a custom realm in that context -- ask on the JBoss forums.

You can't unless you create your own Realm (see: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/config/realm.html), but It may interfere with JBoss internal behaviour ( I don't know how JBoss works) -- Jeanfrancois Please help as soon as possible !!!
