Hi, the obvious candidates are the Acegi Security System for Spring if you need programmatic control, or the servlet security layer, which for example in Tomcat can be mapped to JAAS (and thus LDAP etc).
All you'd have to do yourself is mapping the servlet container roles onto the resource rights management (a snap with role ACLs stored within the repo). > -----Original Message----- > From: rokham [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2008 11:00 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: User Management support by Jackrabbit > > > Hi, > > I'm working on a large collaborative project which uses > Jackrabbit as its > underlying repository.
