Well, I got it working by making a new JNDIRealms object that when it checks the authentication it tries to connect as that user. Roles are still a problem but that should not be insurmountable...
If anyone has good code for doing this, or know of an issue with how I handled it, please let me know Thanks -----Original Message----- From: Chmura, William B.

I have Tomcat connecting the LDAP server on Netware... Beyond that I have had many problems: (1) Netware does not export a userPassword attribute. I have a few ideas on getting around this, such as a patch to try to connect as the requested user, or using a different arribute I told Tomcat to use the "Language" attribute as the password field and I can authenticate using the password ENGLISH... that works. Any other ideas? This is going to be for some low level intranet stuff, so storing the password in a different field is not all that far out of an option (yes I know its security terrible). (2) Beyond the one above: Roles... I cannot get it to get me a list of roles... anyone do this before? >From what I read in the tomcat docs it does not seem likes its possible based on the way netware lists the groups... ANY help, pointers, etc would be greatly apprecaited! Bill -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
