[Lenya Wiki] Update of "EnhancedAaa" by TorstenSchlabach

Dear Wiki user,

You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Lenya Wiki" for change notification.

The following page has been changed by TorstenSchlabach:
http://wiki.apache.org/lenya/EnhancedAaa

The comment on the change is:
wanted to make sure the link to CAS does not get lost; page needs more work

New page:
= Opportunitities for Enhanced AAA for Lenya =

Status of this document: RT (Random Thought)

== Introduction ==

At this point in time (between the release of 1.2.2 and 1.4) Lenya uses an entirely home grown AAA (read: triple-A, Authentication and Authorizsation), which is basically based on all AAA relevant information stored in files on the filesystem. For a walkthrough see [AuthenticationAndAuthorizationBackgrounder].

This leaves a lot of room for improvement to meet very different people's and organisations needs.

== Potential enhancements ==

 * JAAS
 * Container Managed Security
 * Single-Sign-On solutions

== Links ==

 * Servlet container - getRemoteUser()
 * JAAS
 * [http://tp.its.yale.edu/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=CentralAuthenticationService]
