As I saw in the documentation, all the information on this topic is Torque DB oriented, and I think isn't suitable for my requirements. Wich could be the best strategy to manage the existing users and roles??? What class(es) should I override to implement my own users logic? Must I have any other consideration about this topic??

Re: Getting users and roles from external DB
Of course I read it!! But I'm getting a little confused with that article because it says: ... However Jetspeed is no longer coupled to the Turbine Security service And below in that document, all the default security implementations are Turbine ones (which uses Torque), and the extending user Howto is Torque oriented too... -Original message- From: David Sean Taylor [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Mon, 3 May 2004 13:20:39 -0400 To: Jetspeed Users List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Getting users and roles from external DB On May 3, 2004, at 10:03 AM, Carlos Yaconi Hitschfeld wrote: Hi!

The database model is based on the Torque model, however it does not use any Torque classes to implement it. If you want to implement your own User or Group or Role Management implementation, it does not have to be based on the default implementation. However you do need to meet the required interfaces for services and object model classes. Also, you can level your implementation, meaning that you can implement the User interfaces, but leave the default Group and Role implementations. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thank you very much... and the last (I hope) question, Does all the classes(interfaces) needed to be overriden(implemented) are listed in that doc?? - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

For example, you could override the UserManagement and PortalAuthentication implementations, and leave the others to the default implementations - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
