Hi all (sorry for the previous unterminated mail), I would like to know if S2 provides a solution to manage user authentication.
In short, no. S2 has a RolesInterceptor which allows you to specify that users in certain roles are allowed or disallowed from proceeding to the action invocation. This uses HttpServletRequest's isUserInRole method, so it leverages any authentication system which can be tested through that. Anything more would be hard to find the sweet spot for the right number of users. If someone had the right idea, perhaps someone could leverage the plugin framework to provide support for authentication.
