JSF and j_security_check

[Emmanuel Jay]

Hi,

I am looking at form based authentication with JSF and have seen a post on the SDN forum (http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=579873&messageID=2929577) saying that this was not possible.

Is anyone trying to do the same?

and is the only to achieve form based authentication to store a var in the session and add some logic on (the rendered attribute of jsf component for example) jsf pages that can be displayed after login (depending on the value of this var)?

Any help is greatly apreciated!
