Hi,
I have a custom security realm defined that uses a database login
module.
What I would like to do is, from a custom GBean, query the
realm/login-module somehow to test if a given username/password is
valid.
So I will have a username string and a password string, and I would
like to
validate it and get back a boolean indicating its validity. I think I
would use the Kernel to grab an instance of some security-related
GBean to
do this and invoke an operation on it, but I'm not sure which one I
would
have to use. Anybody have any ideas?
Why not simply
new LoginContext(realmName, callbackHandler).login()
with an appropriately setup CallbackHandler?
thanks

Thanks,
Aman
