Cool, thanks for the info. Do you know if the documentation will be updated
that explains how to use it by the time 4.1 is released?

Perusal of the online CVS browser will show you that the "TOMCAT_4_1_0"
tag includes version 1.6 of org.apache.catalina.realm.JNDIRealm, which
implements this feature.

Unless the docs just haven't been updated yet, it looks like it still has
the same JNDI Realm support that it had before. i.e. it uses an admin DN to
log into the LDAP server and then queries the userPassword attribute for the
user and compares the passwords. I'm hoping that the method where it does an
LDAP bind as the user himself will be implemented. I know someone had a
patch that does this. The question is whether or not that patch will be in
4.1 or not.

Hi Jon,

I have not used it, so I can't say how well it works but the 4.1 server.xml
and example webapps have examples showing how use JNDI for that.  The admin
webapp (kind of confusing terminology, manager now refers mostly to
persistence management and the admin webapp is the administration interface)
will use it to administer users, roles, etc.

Does anyone know if this release contains the new JNDI Realm code that
allows you to authenticate users using LDAP binds instead of querying the
directory for the password and comparing?
