  Hi,
 
  I've been looking into possibly replacing Tomcat's authentication with
  our own functionality.  It looks like there use to be a class called
  SimpleRealm in the older Tomcat versions that would have done the trick
  if we replaced it, but I can't find any references to it in the latest
  source that I downloaded.
 
 
 In TC versions  3.x.x, the replacement is RealmBase (in
 org.apache.catalina.realm).  It's an abstract class, so you extend it with
 the functionality that you want.

my previous attempts??  Jim]


Hi Bill,

Thanks!  

I think that I've at least been able to get started with this, but
instead of RealmBase, I've gotten a very (I mean, VERY) crude JAASRealm
example working, where I built my own JAASLoginModule, etc.  So far, it
seems to be working ok, but I haven't really added any too complicated
yet...

Jim

P.S.  I forgot to ask:  Is this mailing list appropriate for questions
about this type of subject?  Or, is one of the other Tomcat lists more
appropriate?

I'll be needing to add more functionality to this, so I'm just wondering
if this is the right place for future questions?

How to Replace Tomcat authentication?

our own functionality.  It looks like there use to be a class called

if we replaced it, but I can't find any references to it in the latest

Has anyone here done this before, and can you provide me to some
pointers as to where/how to get started with it with the current version
of Tomcat?

Thanks in advance!!
