Hi folks, I'm using Tomcat and CMA with JAAS. In my application there are several possible reason why a user can not login (wrong password, user expired, user locked, etc) and I need to present a message with the information to user on the JSP page. So I need to propagate the exception from the JAAS to the JSP page, however I was not able to do this. Does anybody have any idea how to do this? The CMA is a must otherwise it's easy…
In the meantime I've come with a workaround and would like to know your opinion – in my login module, when the exception occurs I store the information in JNDI, for example I put a HashMap in JNDI and in HashMap under key "username_password" I store "user expired". Then on error page I read j_username and j_password (Tomcat does transfer these along with all request parameters from login page) and I use the username and password to generate the key and read the message value from JNDI. What do you think about the workaround? Do you see any obvious holes? Thx, Milan -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
