JAAS in combination with WAR

Hi!

I want to develop a webapp which should be easily deployable by using a
WAR file. So, as I found out, I can place the context descriptor as
context.xml in the META-INF directory. 

But I have some problems concerning the JAASRealm.

First, the location of the jaas config file has to be set via a system
property. How can I handle that by using a WAR??

Second, the my implementation of the LoginModule is bundled in a jar
file. If the jar is placed in the WEB-INF/lib directory of my webapp,
authentication with jaas doesn't succeed. If I put it into tomcat's
common/lib directory, it starts working. Are there any possibilities to
deploy the login jar within my webapp??


regards & thanx, Ingo
