Hi,
        I want to enable my servlets with kerberos authentication. I've got
a scheme a bit like JAAS in that a successful authentication maps to a set
of principals with credentials. The servlets will check with an entitlements
engine to decide what functionality a user (represented by a set of
principals) has access to. The basic scheme was to write a mod_auth
derivative to do the kerberos authentication but then I can't send the TGT
across to the servlets without adjusting the APJ protocol to support the
setup of a security context. I can't (don't think) just do the kerberos
authentication in Java as there is also non-servlet context which will need
to use the issued TGT. Has anyone done anything like this before or have any
ideas?
