Re: ServletFilter on j_security_check

Frank,
if you develop a JAAS login module, you can get it to do pretty much 
anything you want, apart from having instant access to that user's 
session. You could write the login attempts to a database for instance.

Guess I need to break out my papers and roll my ownagain.

specifically ignored by the filtering mechanism?

My web.xml file looks as such...

filter

 filter-classraider.portal.servlet.LoginFilter/filter-class
/filter

 url-pattern/j_security_check/url-pattern

Kinda running out of options at this point, anyone else had a problem


similar to needing to audit the login results?

Thanks in advance,
Frank
