Realms and Cocoon

[Jeff Sexton <js...@odshp.com>]

I've been able to use

    <security-constraint>
      ...
    </security-constraint>
    <login-config>
      ...
    </login-config>

In a $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/cocoon/WEB-INF/web.xml for a certain Cocoon
application running under Tomcat.  However, it seems I can only have a
single <login-config> element in this file.  How do others create separate
and different passwords and roles for separate Cocoon applications?
Ideas?

Thanks

Not sure if this works for you, but I've set up a standard database realm
and use a generic role in web.xml (say, "authorized").  Then, I have a
simple action that checks specific roles for sitemap level control of other
resources.  To give access I assign a user the generic "authorized" role and
also any specific roles needed to access the applications protected by the
sitemap action (say "admin" or "user" etc.) Did that make any sense?

I can pass on specifics if you're interested.  If the action sounds like it
has general appeal, I can submit it for inclusion.  It's very simple, but
has worked well.
