Subject: Re: JAX-RS Security - Authentication
Thanks Andrei.
I have used ContainerRequestFilter and could make it work successfully.
How can I get the username in my service implementation class.
Regards
Paul

Hi,
I assume you mean JAASAuthenticationFilter.
This filter use JAAS to authenticate users:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_Authentication_and_Authorization_Service
You should set up JAAS configuration for your application server, looks like
for example so for LDAP:
jaas.config:
ldap {
com.sun.security.auth.module.LDAPLoginModule required
initialContextFactory=com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory
connection.username = cn=Directory Manager
connection.password = myPassword
connection.url = ldap://localhost:389
user.base.dn = ou=employees,dc=example,dc=com
user.filter = (uid=%u)
user.search.subtree = true
role.base.dn = ou=roles,dc=example,dc=com
role.filter = (member:=uid=%u)
role.name.attribute = cn
role.search.subtree = true
authentication = simple
};
Refer your Application Server documentation to see where jaas configuration
should be located and which login modules are available.
Alternative you can use non-jaas RequestHandler (ContainerRequestFilter for
jax-rs 2.0) and authenticate user using other mechanism.
Regards,
Andrei.
