thanks in anticipation

Cyrus SASL 2.1.x has a JAR file with some classes that have SASL functionality. Maybe it is not too hard to write a wrapper for a Tomcat plugin/realm.

With SASL you gain access to several authentication mechanisms:

- Kerberos IV
- Kerberos V (GSSAPI)
- private user database
- One-Time Passwords
- LDAP (experimental, via SASLAuthDaemon)
- DEC OSF/1 SIA (for those who are running on DEC OSF/1, like me)

Nix.
