I would like to know if somebody uses SSO with JSF, i'm trying to find a good way to do it in my apps.
I use jcifs. http://jcifs.samba.org/ I use the jcifs.http.NtlmHttpFilter filter to authenticate the request. I follow it with a custom servlet filter that pulls the username out of the authenticated UserPrincipal, converts it into a database-backed User object, and stores it as a request parameter. At that point, I have a managed bean that provides accessors to various security method calls based on the login object request parameter value. In my case, it's important to do this every request, but you could work at the session level instead easily enough.
