Here my scenario:

We have two applications runing on the same
server (App A and App B)

What we'd like to do is to allow one login 
prompt but two different role initializations.

In other words suppose the user browses the web 
site and comes upon a page that she needs to
authenticate herself for. The sever redirects the
user to the login page and upon submission of 
her credentials she gets auhtenticated by an LDAP 
serevr and her roles are generated. The application 
A uses the LDAP to generate roles (groups), while 
application B uses a database. 

Wihle I suspect that I need to use SingleSignOn valve
to have a unified session accross the contexts I am
not quite sure how to do the role assignment.

I can see bits of the solution here and there but
I can not see the whole picture. I have read the 
JAAS developer's guide and even came accross JAASRealm
class (which I can't find the doc for). I am just not
quite sure how to put that info to use.

If anyone have a resource that will help me out to 
the solution I would appreciate your information. Or you
might have a clear idea of how to do it, that would be
even better :-)

Thanks,
Alex.
