I have a similar problem and, at the moment, no real solution. I'd prefer to be able to change the 'role' so I could push/pop id's as a management account drills down to a user account (to fix user problems), but I have no clue how to do this as Tomcat seems to have only read-only roles.
My levels (most powerful to most restricted) would be: 5. Super user 4. Reseller 3. Client 2. Client's customer (a company) 1. User under client's customer (employee for a company) Thanks for any help on this slightly different issue, David -----Original Message----- From: Parag Marathe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 22, 2004 12:36 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: How to Implement Roles Experts, I have a typical problem implementing roles. I have roles like Super User, Accounts User , General user. With Super User having access to all, Accounts and General User are restricted. Same JSP will be displayed to all users. But each will see different set of functions on it. e.g. on homepage.jsp Accounts user will see Update , View options General User will See View Accounts options. SuperUser will See All of above and Create options What will be the best way to implement this in JSP, and how to map actions? All your commnets are highly appreciated.
