Hi Aaron,

Sorry, should have been more descriptive.

I create a loginContext and pass it in the name of the config file and hand it the custom login call back handler.

Then the login method is called; it goes back and grabs the user from a MySQL database.  If the user exists and the credentials fit, we figure out their role and send them on their way.  If not, it throws a Login Exception and punts them back to the login page.  


Hopefully this helps.

Thanks,
Eric

Re: JAAS configuration in geronimo





How are you planning to use this JAAS component?  For example, is it a
LoginModule that you want to use to validate logins to the web
container?

Thanks,
   Aaron
