Re: Using Active Directory realm with Quickstart

[Manoj Khangaonkar <kh...@gmail.com>]

The QuickStart example sets the text file based realm with the line of code

SecurityManager.setRealm(new PropertiesRealm()) ;

Did you try

SecurityManager.setRealm(new ActiveDirectoryRealm()) ;

?

Strange exception from JSec/Ki/Shiro in Grails + ZK application

[John Cladmore <ju...@lorrev.org>]

Hi all,

I am sorry about the cross post.

The problem seems to be in Grails+ZK or JSec/Ki/Shiro.

I am getting the following exception when I call Subject.login():

Exception: java.lang.IllegalStateException: No SessionHandler or 
SessionManager


This is very strange, because I don't get this except if I use a .gsp 
login page or pass the username/password as a query string 
(http://host/app/stuff?u=username+p=password).  They both call the same 
AuthService.authenticate(...) method I have defined.

However, if I use a KZ .zul file with username and password input, the 
event handler in zk gets get the exception above.

If anyone have any idea, please help.

.v

PS.  I played around a bit last night by having the JSec/Ki session 
always created and that seemed to work for a few  tries but was never 
consistent.  Then I started getting that same exception for simply 
calling SecurityUtils.subject?.getSession().

Re: Using Active Directory realm with Quickstart

[Les Hazlewood <lh...@apache.org>]

Hi Matt,

Manoj is correct - that is how you do it via code.

But if you're using the Servlet filter approach, you can just define the
following in the ShiroFilter's text config in the [main] section:

activeDirectoryRealm =
org.apache.shiro.realm.activedirectory.ActiveDirectoryRealm
# because ActiveDirectoryRealm subclasses AbstractLdapRealm, you have access
to those properties too:
#activeDirectoryRealm.systemUsername = foo
#activeDirectoryRealm.systemPassword = bar
# etc.

Cheers,

Les
