That solution is not recommended: - Connecting for each user counteracts the use of connection pools. For most databases connecting to a db takes much more time than performing a select on a given connection.
- To implement this you have to implement your own realm, as the db realm that is delivered with tomcat assumes that user, password and roles are store in tables and are accessed through a unique database user for all requests. - Each user needs an own database account. > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:jattwood@;hgmp.mrc.ac.uk] > Gesendet: Mittwoch, 23.
