There are no additional classes required. Just like you use JNDI to look up a containers connection pool. I think it best practice to use container security. .V

Security is really my week side but AFAIK your Container Manager Security does have certain container specific configurations and even requirement for additional java classes to be coded.
As I said "Security Filter" component has a small, simple realm interface that is portable across different servers.

I agree with Alen, but at the same time if all the containers are supporting J2EE security standards then porting to different containers should not be an issue. SecurityFilter as I just browsed through seems interesting but all the latest J2EE containers will have to support
Servlet
2.3 for using the same. Alternatively whatif I write my own security piece by looking up LDAP for A&A (authentication and authorization) and this piece would be called from some place in the STRUTS control flow so that for everyrequest security would be validated.

PM Please respond to "Struts Users Mailing List"
If I'm not mistaken, this approach is container specific hence would make deployment on difference container(s) not as smooth as one would wish. I may be wrong so please correct me! I'm not very clued up in this area.
;)
I have privilege working with servlet 2.3 and am now using SecurityFilter component (www.securityfilter.org) to handle my auth. Very simple!

Best place would be using container J2EE security, such as JDBC realms.

STRUTS framework so that for every request security check is made. Does STRUTS provide integration with any Security framework ?
thanks in advance. Sreekant G.
