Does anyone know of a Struts work around for the problem with Tomact in bookmarking the login page for container managed security?
There was a brief thread on this issue about a month ago [http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg59734.html] There is a SourceForge project called SecurityFilter that can be used to replace Tomcat's container managed security, but it would be nice to be able to work with Tomcat. Has anyone tried to call "j_security_check" directly from an Action class? Once you can authenticate a user you would be able to get the roles for that user. Is there a way to set up a JDBC Realm purely in Struts? I did not see any information on this in a quick scan of the documentation. Hopefully, the good people working on Tomcat see this as a bug that needs to be fixed. Quote from a recent thread in the Tomcat news group: "I wish that there was a legitimate configuration change to enable you to bookmark a login.jsp page--such as a j_success_url parameter which instructs Tomcat where to send users if not doing an automated login process." Another user stated, "...I simply just can't believe that there are Tomcat instances out there in a live production environment with configured realms that suffer from this problem. Surely there must be something...." http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg77974.html Thanks. Mike __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
