Possible to implement Pubcookie authentication using Tomcat Realm?

[Jonathan Eric Miller <je...@uchicago.edu>]

I recently found out about a way to create a single sign-on setup for
authentication for Web applications called Pubcookie. The following link has
a diagram that shows how it works. If a user hasn't yet authenticated, they
are redirected to a separate server that displays a login page. Then, once
the user has authenticated correctly, they are redirected back to the
original Web application.

I'm wondering if anyone knows if it would be possible to implement this in
Tomcat as a Realm? Or, would it be more complicated than that since it does
a redirect?
