An alternative to this would be to build the forward string at runtime,
something like
String forward = null;
if(user.isSysAdmin()){
forward = "sysadmin";
} else if(user.isAdmin()){
forward = "admin";
}
return mapping.findForward(forward);
It's very much horses for courses as to how you do it, but my preference
lies with the approach above as it helps to avoid multiple return statements
from the same method.
(You'll obviously need to make sure that something is assigned to the String
before you return, though!!)
This has definitely come up before, so I think there's a bit more on this
approach in the mail archive somewhere if it helps.

Subject: Re: forwarding to different web pages
define seperate action mappings and depending on the login forward the
guy to the appropriate mapping..
if(user.isSysAdmin())
return mapping.findForward("sysadmin");
else if(user.isAdmin())
return mapping.findForward("admin");
Hope this helps
