It is possible to authenticate against a source other than Domain.xml.
What you should look into is creating your on Realm implementation.
I started by looking at the what the default MemoryRealm did, but examining
JNDIRealm should help you alot. Also, I am not sure, but I think that the
JNDIRealm
handles authentication against an LDAP Server. Or, there is a LDAPRealm
implementation out there
somewhere. Again, I have not looked at that stuff in a while, but I believe
it is there. I think they
are bundled with the source.

Subject: LDAP + Slide


Hi,

I am currently using Tomcat 4.0.1 with Slide 1.0.16 and am interested in
doing all authentication and authorization through the IPlanet LDAP
Directory Server. I can configure Tomcat to successfully work with my LDAP
server by extending  the JNDIRealm but I assume there is more I need to do.

Now the question is can use Tomcat+Slide to authenticate against the
information in the LDAP Server rather than the information specified in the
Domain.xml file. There does not seems to be a definitive answer in the Slide
mail archive.

cheers
