I've mentioned this once before on the list I think, but I have a simple action that checks container based roles. I can send you more information this weekend from home if you're interested.

Hussayn Thanks for the reply - I need to do a number of things: 1. Protect the whole site so it cannot be accessed at all (except through single login screen) while under development. 2. Create an alias (virtual host) - as seen on many Cocoon sites - that is easier to remember & work with 3. I am using form-based authentification for restricted access *within* the site itself (certain users having access to certain parts) For 1 and 2 above, I think its most effective to use Apache/Tomcat services - and for 3 use Cocoon. If you could supply any code snippets that you think are relevant, I would appreciate it.
