Never mind... I wasn't calling super.init() when I was overriding init() in 
SwarmWebApplication impl

I'm with you... it doesn't seem to be too difficult to get the mapping between 
ldap/swarm working. I am attempting to try it out in a simple application. 
However, I am receiving a NullPointerException in WaspSession because the 
StrategyFactory is not instantiated. Is there something else that needs to be 
down in the SwarmWebApplication (following the instructions from 
http://wicketstuff.org/confluence/display/STUFFWIKI/Getting+started+with+Swarm)?

        public WaspSession(WaspApplication application, Request request)
        {
                super(request);
                securityStrategy = 
application.getStrategyFactory().newStrategy(); // throws npe
        }

I think there will be one more beta before we do the final.
I recently made some changes to boost performance and a public beta
for that will be better. Even though we are already using it in our
apps without problems through the snapshot release.
With any luck the 2nd beta will be released this weekend and the final
will probably follow soon after.

Well the slightly more complex route is connecting to ldap yourself
(option number 1 in my previous mail).
Personally i think the mapping between ldap and swarm will be a
breeze. because a swarm principal is basically just a name.
