LDAP and SecurityContext

[ma...@mjwilcox.com]

Hi,
I'm working on a chapter for an upcoming book on JSPs by Wrox 
Press. My chapter is on JSP and Security. One of the topics I'm 
going to cover is how to add an LDAP based interceptor. I know 
that I can use SecurityCheck.java as a model, but should I just add 
my LDAP code to that class or create a new class (e.g. 
LDAPSecurityCheck.java) and if so where do I tell Tomcat where to 
locate it?

Also is it possible to put any configuation information in the 
web.xml file for the Security Interceptor to use (e.g. things like 
LDAP hostname, search base, etc)? Or must I hardcode this or put 
into a seperate properties file?

If someone can point me in the right direction, I'll be happy to pass 
back whatever code I write. I might be able to give even something 
more valueable, documentation! ;) 

thanks,

Mark
