Is it correct to say that you lose the ability to have single-sign on across
multiple contexts if you go with a custom login solution (e.g. checking
login form fields in a servlet and, if correct, setting a “login” session
attribute to true) as opposed to standard form-based authentication?

How can I programmatically customize the form-based authentication, so that
I can retain my current login mechanism while still telling Tomcat to use
these credentials at a web container level rather than just at the web
application level?

I’d imagine there’d be ways to customize this, as developers would like to
perhaps customize the login process (requiring more than just a j_username
and j_password).

How can I do this?

Thanks.
