Hi Satish, things are easy, if you look at the used technics: Silde is a servlet in tomcat and uses the authentication mechanism of tomcat. This includes such nice things like the sso-Valve. What you have to implement a user management that does both: 1. Creating/Deleting the user in silde by just creating/deleting a collection with the user name in /user (default value). Tip: Look at the powerful roles mechanism in slide. 2. Doing the JAAS-Authentication. This is how we did it here.
