I developed an webapp about a year ago, using struts 2 and a security
package called (at the time) jsecurity. Since then, jsecurity has become
an apache project and has been renamed Apache Ki/Shiro. I guess that
there was a naming conflict with the "Ki" name, so it is now called
Apache Shiro (as of very recently). 
http://www.jsecurity.org/ (old independent website)
http://incubator.apache.org/ki/ (apache website - probably soon to be
renamed shiro)

Naming issues aside, this was an excellent security package providing
authentication and authorization that was pretty easy to learn,
flexible, and very powerful. The support that I received from the
project's founders was second to none (Thanks Les & Jeremy!). One of my
colleagues here at KU, Bruce Phillips, has also posted some tutorials
(linked to from the apache website) to get you started.

You should really check into it.
