I still don't follow, once the XConfToolTask is executed how is the AuthenticationManager you want to use reflected in the cocoon.roles file?. Or should I not worry about this, simply modify my authentication.xroles and recreate the jars? Do I need to recreate the cocoon.war also?.
For your curiosity: I want to use my own AuthenticationManager to do role based authentication. I have already written an Authenticor, which gets the users info, along with there roles. But based on the roles, I want access-control to certain areas of the sitemap.

I have to admit though, I'm a little curious as to why you'd want to replace the Default Authentication Manager. I know others have replaced the PipelineAuthenticator with their own Authenticator. Personally, I found using the PipelineAuthenticator to work rather well. I simply wrote a generator that performs all the authentication. It calls a session bean to perform the login and then returns the required XML if login was successful.
