Hi Joe, Yes I use it extensively, what is it you want to do and what App Server/Web Container are you using?

Hi again, I dont mean to sound as though I deserve anyone's attention but I can't find any resource on this. I've searched all the forums I know of and the net but still can't find any meaningful info on the subject. I've also looked at the servlet and jsp specs which don't go into much detail. The J2EE developers guide seems to be heavily slanted to developing with specific tools. If someone can offer any suggestion as to how I use the declarative security principle, roles and rolegroups to identify users and their groups (as outlined below) I would be most grateful.
