I've got a basic implementation here locally that implements this (still using the j2-group and j2-role attributes). I would like to see if I have some time this weekend to setup a real build environment (including maven). Before sending in a patch, I would like to write more unit tests as it will give me a better feel of the code base. I'll let you know how this progresses. > - We need to support Sun LDAP for authentication. That shouldn't be too difficult. I noticed a CredentialPasswordEncoder somewhere in the config file but haven't had the change to look into it. We just need to make sure that we can plug in different encoders/decoders for various LDAP servers. > Regarding your general questions, around extended LDAP support in J2, > I think it is reasonable to say that we would like to improve it based > on the community needs and feedback.

The project that I'm currently involved in goes into production on Monday and still needs some preparation so that will take up some of my free time. Can't make any promises now :) Greetings, Davy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
