Wow, thanks for your comments.

I too have very little static content; so we are in the same boat on that part.  

I'd be curious to know about your Siteminder ASA solution.  Our SiteMinder people here 
say that ASA is too hard or tricky to get working and stuff like that.  I am not sure 
I buy this...

Any comments on ASA and tomcat would be great too...Also, I would mind knowing the 
details of your environment (os, Siteminder rev, is the ASA a servlet filter or 
something else, stuff like that).


Oh and if anybody else out there can help with iPlanet to Tomcat...that would be great 
too...

I read your whole message thinking "why doesn't he just use the J2EE
AppServer agents, that's what they're for" until I got to the bottom ;)

We have SiteMinder as well, and didn't want any front-end to tomcat as
we have very little static content.  So we ended up writing a single
sign on service (in Java, running standalone on tomcat) that talks to
SiteMinder, and all our applications talk to this SSO service instead of
SiteMinder directly.  

Can't help you much with JK/JK2/other connectors ;(
