Different security constraints for different ip addresses

2007-04-21 Thread Omar Eljumaily
I want to be able to give non login authorization for a local subnet, 
but force everybody else to login to a site.


Can I do this with combinations of ip-constraint and auth-constraint in 
web.xml?  Something like the following would give access to a private 
subnet.  Could I give access to everybody else by forcing them to login?


security-constraint
 web-resource-collection
   url-pattern/admin/*/url-pattern
 /web-resource-collection

 ip-constraint
   allow192.168.1.0/24/allow
 /ip-constraint
/security-constraint


Thanks.

No, since the servlet spec does not define a constraint based on
ip-address.

Options that would work include:
 - a filter
 - separate contexts and a remote address valve
