Apache Struts 2, Java SE Development Kit, Apache Tomcat 2. Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers, Struts 2 tags 3. Model-View-Controller (MVC), Object-Graph Navigation Language (OGNL) 4.

RE: JAAS struts 2 Tutorial?
Better a late replay than none at all :) Is JAAS the best way to go, or there are better alternates? 'JAAS' encompasses a lot of stuff, so it depends what you are trying to do... Let me assume for the minute that you are talking about login/authentication... In this case, it depends whether you need your user to be authenticated to your J2EE container or not. (If for example you want to control authorisation to any EJBs that you call via their deployment descriptor, then you will need to be authenticated to the container ) JAAS will give you this, but unfortunately will require you to write a server specific LoginModule for every server you need to support. If, however, you don't need this, then something like Acegi (http://www.acegisecurity.org/) will give you a more portable solution cheers Perryn -Original Message- From: news [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Muhammad Momin Rashid Sent: Wednesday, 12 September 2007 7:32 PM To: user@struts.apache.org Subject: JAAS struts 2 Tutorial?

Re: JAAS struts 2 Tutorial?
In the web app I'm currently developing (which uses JAAS authentication), I've done the following: 1) Create an HttpServletRequestWrapper to override the isUserInRole method 2) Create an AnnotationRoles class to annotate my actions if they require particular roles 3) Create an AnnotationRolesInterceptor (as described in this forum) to determine if the user has the role required by the annotation What are the advantages of using acegi over this custom implementation? And what is the license model of acegi?

Options I've used are creating an interceptor to access the security context (I've not used JAAS personally), and then create an annotation to signify actions/methods that need security information assigned to them.

Re: JAAS struts 2 Tutorial?
You can find the key features of acegi here - http://www.acegisecurity.org/. I see the advantages as being able to customize the authentication and authorization from within the scope of the web application, and not external configuration via an app server. But then, this also depends on the app server. /Ian wild_oscar wrote: In the web app I'm currently developing (which uses JAAS authentication), I've done the following: 1) Create an HttpServletRequestWrapper to override the isUserInRole method 2) Create an AnnotationRoles class to annotate my actions if they require particular roles 3) Create an AnnotationRolesInterceptor (as described in this forum) to determine if the user has the role required by the annotation What are the advantages of using acegi over this custom implementation?

Re: JAAS struts 2 Tutorial?
Hi all,
I think this is a generic problem rather than something Struts 2
specific. Ideally in this situation you would want to be able to
access getRemoteUser() and isUserInRole() from the request.
One approach is to use your application servers' container managed
security, e.g. Tomcat JAASRealm.
Alternatively, the best way I can come up with is by extending
HttpServletRequestWrapper so that you can perform a
setUserPrincipal(), setRemoteUser() (etc.) and then wrapping the
request with your HttpServletRequestWrapper inside a ServletFilter.
Here is a VERY simple example that I wrote of such a filter which sets
up a user called test using this idea.
https://bmarks-portlet.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/bmarks-portlet/bmarks-portlet/trunk/src/main/java/uk/ac/bris/portlet/bookmarks/web/SimpleAuthFilter.java
However, since this relies on a ServletFilter you will require a
slightly different mechanism for portlets.

Re: JAAS struts 2 Tutorial?
Hello tom, I am building a J2EE application, that is going to be viewed using Web Browser and Mobile Devices. I am trying to implement security so that only a logged in user with the correct role can access the different parts of the application e.g. a non-logged in user can only access the public information, a logged in user can access his private data, and an logged in admin user can access the admin console.

Re: JAAS struts 2 Tutorial?
Hi Muhammad, With respect to JAAS integration. Do you mean something like this? http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/how-do-i-obtain-security-details-jaas.html I'm new to Struts 2 but I would imagine you probably want an interceptor of some kind (RolesInterceptor, PrincipalAware etc.) to pass your authentication and authorization details into your Struts Actions. As regards Hibernate integration, I would imagine your best option would be to inject your Hibernate Data Access Object (DAO) into your Struts 2 application using Spring (or something like it, e.g. Guice). If you write your application following the usual IoC best practices you will end up with an application where it should be easy to replace Hibernate with something else (e.g. TopLink, iBATIS, JDBC[Template]). You should then be able to test this code away from the web and reuse it elsewhere. http://static.springframework.org/spring/docs/2.0.x/reference/orm.html#orm-hibernate http://struts.apache.org/2.0.9/docs/spring-plugin.html Alternatively here is an example of writing a Hibernate Aware Struts 2 Action. http://www.hibernate.org/51.html HTH Mark On 9/12/07, Muhammad Momin Rashid [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello Everyone, I am looking for a tutorial for integrating JAAS into my Struts 2 + Hibernate Application.

Re: JAAS struts 2 Tutorial?
Hello Mark, Thanks for your response. Actually I am writing a Web Application from Scratch, using Struts 2 and Hibernate. I need to implement security so that only authorised User can access the desired pages. The user names, passwords and their roles are stored in the database. I am looking for a tutorial that can guide me through implementation of JAAS based security for my web application. I am starting from scratch here. Regards, Muhammad Momin Rashid.

Re: JAAS struts 2 Tutorial?
Muhammad, Starting out from scratch should you use JAAS? I'm not a JAAS expert (I tend to use JASIG CAS which uses JAAS internally and SecurityFilter) but I imagine it all depends on your circumstances. From what I can gather if you need to reuse the exact same login mechanism for desktop applications, command line applications, applets, web applications and such then it is probably worth the effort to create a JAAS LoginModule and configure your web application to use that. Granted JAAS is a standard mechanism but it looks like it can be a complex mechanism at times. If your application is only ever going to be a web application then you are probably justified in producing a simpler homegrown solution (at least to start with). The example below shows one way to create a Struts 2 login interceptor using Spring. http://www.vitarara.org/cms/struts_2_cookbook/creating_a_login_interceptor In the example above the actual authentication is conducted by a Spring bean (securityManager). Using Spring's JDBCTemplates, LDAPTemplates, HibernateTemplate it is fairly simple to create beans that access various datasources in various ways. It would also be easy enough to extend the securityManager to access role information. Of course you can always access your JAAS login module via your Spring bean a later date if you so choose.

struts 2 tutorial and maven question
Hi! I am new to struts, maven etc. I am trying to follow the bootstrap tutorial for struts 2. I used the Maven Archetype to create a new application for the tutorial and everything worked fine except... - when I create the Login-validation.xml in my src/main/java/tutorial directory (where Login.java is), then use use maven to build a war file, it will not pick up the Login-validation.xml file and put it in the target/classes/tutorial directory. However, if I move the Login-validation.xml file to src/main/resources/tutorial...then maven does pick up the Login-validation.xml file and put it in the target/classes/tutorial directory. Can someone tell me * where are we supposed to keep the xxx-validation.xml files? * if they are supposed to be in the same directory as the java action classes, then what do I need to do to the default pom.xml file to make maven pick up these files and put them in the appropriate classes subdirectory?
