login portlet and tomcat-users.xml

[Xavier Lawrence <xl...@jahia.com>]

Hi,

How could I configure Jetspeed-2 so the login portlet can use login
details given in tomcat-users.xml ???

Thanks in advance for any help.

Regards

Xavier

You can't.
Jetspeed-2 currently only supports database based authentication.
Recently a group of users started to investigate how to provide LDAP
authorization as well: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JS2-188.
Some part of LDAP integration is already written but it isn't complete yet.
Providing xml registry based authorization (like using the tomcat-users.xml)
isn't planned however.
The authorization scheme needed by Jetspeed-2 is also far more advanced than
can be provided by a simple tomcat-users.xml definition.
