Test SSO using Webseal

[Avner Cohen]

Hi All,

While not directly related to Shiro, I thought someone  in this list might have 
some inputs around this:

I need to test SSO using Webseal. I'm not even close to being able to get 
access to the Webseal itself (client site installation). My JAVA code is very 
simple:

String userId = request.getUserPrincipal().getName();
And something like:

    for (Map<String, String> row : rows)
    {
        String role = (String) row.get("U_ENT_NAME");
        if (request.isUserInRole(role))
        {
            userRole = role;
            break;
        }
    }
Obviously as I log into the correct URL:

   String userId = request.getUserPrincipal().getName();
Always returns null. I understand that webseal will put in some encrypted data 
into the "iv-creds" header, I can add headers to test this (I use proxymotron, 
other suggestions are welcome) there, but it will not be translated correctly 
into the getName() unless I know the exact format there.

Any suggestions?

Many thanks,
   Avner Cohen.
