Hi,

I think your best option is to store the URL security in the database and have 
a request filter validate user's role dynamically.

Objet : Securing URLs in a J2EE web application

Hi Everyone,

So far I have beena  susccessful SHiro newbie, adding basic user and role mgmt. 
into my open source project for wildlife research:

https://github.com/holmbergius/Shepherd-Project

However, most of my users (biologists) will not be comfortable adjusting and 
managing URL-based security in web.xml with the Shiro filter.

What is the best way for me to develop URL-based mgmt. as a UI function with 
Shiro? Is it simply a matter of moving to shiro.ini and dynamically re-writing 
the URL entries based on choices made by the user in my GUI, or should I create 
persistent mappings through the Shiro API?

Any advice would help!


Cheers,
