Hi, quick question!

I am working on an internal API using web2py and the organization I am 
working for wants us to use JWTs. I have had no success with the JWTAuth in 
the tools file, but have successfully been able to redirect to the single 
sing-on provider and then validate the token as the single sign on provider 
redirects back to the web2py service.

So basically I have been able to validate that a user with a given username 
is allowed to log in. Now, the question becomes, how do I log in the user?

Assume the user already exists within the Auth DB for now. In the long run 
I will need to update user permission and LDAP groups and so on, but now I 
just need how to login problematically when I know the user is allowed to 
login by a validated JWT token, but I have no password or anything else 
except the username,


# Code to validate JWT token..

username = validated_jwt_token.preffered_username.
Auth.login(username)

# User should now be logged in.

Any idea?
Thanks!
