I apologize if my submission of an LDAPRealm implementation appeared
presumptuous - at the time that I needed it, all I could find were emails
from other people asking if there was one (upon doing web searches.) So
after writing it and testing it out and getting the documentation clear, I
volunteered it for tomcat, since it was something that a lot of other people
could use too. Apparently some discussion has already gone on about an
implementation of this, as I found it later when I had some more time to
review the archives, and the tomcat 4 b4 release now has an implementation
:-).
The jakarta website encourages people to get involved; I am a little
disappointed to not receive at least a "thanks but no thanks" response. But
I am glad that there is now a realm implementation that will work with LDAP
for tomcat.
