Change Default Authenticator

Hi -

 

In previous versions of Roller you were able to use a custom
authenticator by extending the org.roller.presentation.Authenticator
class and changing the:

 

<context-param>

<param-name>org.roller.authenticatorClass</param-name>

<param-value>org.roller.presentation.DefaultAuthenticator</param-value>

</context-param>

 

In the app web.xml to use the custom one.  That option seems not to be
available any more or has the configuration changed?

 

Thanks,

Monika

Is there any reason why we don't turn on the MathCommentAuthenticator
by default?

starting with the 1.2 release there is a new configuration system which allows you to set configurable properties from outside of the webapp.  more details are here ...

http://www.rollerweblogger.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=ConfigurationGuide

in your config file you would want to do something like ..

# use math comment authenticator
comment.authenticator.classname=org.roller.presentation.velocity.MathCommentAuthenticator
