I'm sorry, I see my wording wasn't very clear. I meant to say not to use container based authentication at all because that will be server specific. The solution for cross-container, out-of-the-box authentication is to provide a servlet filter for that does all that. Now, I think this isn't a perfect solution. More code to write and maintain etc. So I think you have a point when you realy want to provide out-of-the-box authentication. I don't know if Slide should provide this. Maybe. Still, it doesn't have to be Tomcat.
