'Remember Me'
How can I implement a 'Remember Me' checkbox for username, password, on
my site when I use 'Form-Based' authentication? If I can't and have to
use Custom authentication. How can I program a principal on my site so
that is can authorize against different services?
Thanks, in advance.

Well, I develop with JBoss which requires that I have a Principal
available to it. I guess that means I need to check JBoss on this one.
It's a shame there isn't a full standard way to do that across
implementations.
Thanks again

Two thing for you to check out:
1. Remember me: Use cookies on the users browser to store user-login
information. (This can be done in many ways!)
2. Use SingleSignOn feature in Tomcat to allow users to be recognized through
the hole site.

Sorry about that. I noticed that I didn't have as much detail to that
question.

No offense intended... I answered the part I knew there was a
reference for. Reading and writing cookies is one part of your
desired process. The rest I've not done. At least that spec show
how to get the data into and out of cookies.
Best wishes,

There was a bit more to my question though that you truncated. The API
(2.2+) doesn't tell me about assigning a principal so that I may check
isUserInRole() etc. I am talking about custom-authentication to assign
a principal so that I may check that against that isUserInRole.
Obtaining a principal is something I get from using the FORM-based
authentication, but how do I get that with custom based authentication.
