Tomcat -> JNDI -> LDAP -> Netware
Hey All,
We've been talking alot about container authentication so I thought I
would drop this note out here...
I got an modified Tomcat JNDIRealm to work by connecting with Netware 5.
I am pretty sure my solution stinks for several reasons which would
become apparent.
It does however verify a login and return the groupMemberships as Roles
into Tomcat so it has accomplished my purposes. This should allow a
tomcat server to share authentication and groups with NDS...
If someone can review it and let me know if there is a better way -
especially for getting the groupMemberships (I am tokenizing it now).
There is a jar file at developed for 4.0.4 (or 4.0.3)
http://www.explosivo.com/bill/downloads/tomcat/
That has the code. Any comments or suggestions for improvements are
more than welcome. if I ever update it I will post it to the same place
(in case someone somewhere down the line needs it).
I hear 4.1 will have the authentication by connecting that netware
needs... Hopefully it will also handle the groups!
Thanks
Bill
