Subject: Security and Struts



Hello,
 I was hoping someone would have some advice on securing a website using
struts. I am developing a webapp that has to be secure (password protected)
and which restricts access to different parts of the site depending on the
roles a user possesses. The roles each user has are stored as XML in a
database and may be configured by an administrator. Does struts have any
built-in security capabilities that I could take advantage of?


 Any help/pointers would be much appreciated!

 My first guess would be to put all jsp pages in WEB-INF (use only
ForwardAction to get to each page) and subclass ActionServlet with the logic
for check authentication etc. However, will this cause any problems when it
comes to a user book marking a page?

Thanks,
-Ryan Cuprak
