The only way I thought of to get around this problem was to prefix usernames
with the other field. In your case login form has three fields, username,
password and office and you have a javascript that concatenates the office
number to the username when the user submits the login form...

we have bill from office 1 and bill from office 2:
Username: Bill
Password: Foo
Office: 1
then we submit
j_username: 1Bill
j_password: Foo

and for Bill from office 2:
Username: Bill
Password: Foo
Office: 2
then we submit
j_username: 2Bill
j_password: Foo

Subject: Realms advise.


Not being experienced with realms I want to ask for your advece, will
this work?

I need to validate not only username and password, but one extra field
(an integer, OfficeID). This is becouse my webapp can service users from
different offices, and each office has it's own set of users and data.
In other words, The app needs to make sure that there is a username X
with password Y for Office Z.


Will realms work here?

I guess before continuing with my questions I'll wait to find out. Since
they may be particular to the use of realms or other options.

Thanks in advance!
