Rapthor- take a look at http://developer.mimer.com/howto/howto_29.htm JDBCRealm is a technique for storing user information in a database.
Where JDBCRealm info is accessed via your connection handle (and hopefully acquired from connection pool ) defined within server.xml as in this example <Resource name="jdbc/MimerPool" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"/> <ResourceParams name="jdbc/WhateverPoolYouAreUsing"> <parameter> <name>user</name> <value>HOTELADM</value> </parameter> <parameter> <name>password</name> <value>HOTELADM</value> </parameter> <parameter> <name>driverClassName</name> <value>com.mimer.jdbc.Driver</value> </parameter> <parameter> <name>driverName</name> <value jdbc:mimer://localhost/UniqueNameForYourDriver</value> </parameter> </ResourceParams more specifically DataSource is defined within your app's web.xml as in <resource-ref> <resource-ref-name>jdbc/WhateverPoolYouAreUsing</resource-ref-name> <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type> <res-auth>Container</res-auth> </resource-ref> To quote mimer.com doc: JDBCRealm is a technique for storing user information in a database. The first step to enable storing user information is to create the necessary tables. (The context is where the connection handle is typically stored..) Context = new InitialContext(); Get a data source, for example: DataSource ds = (DataSource) context.lookup("java:comp/env/jdbc/WhateverPoolYouAreUsing"); Get a connection, for example: Connection con = ds.getConnection(); the connection handle will be used to access JDBCRealm information- Martin-- ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rapthor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <users@tomcat.apache.org> Sent: Monday, March 27, 2006 5:49 AM Subject: Re: Get JDBCRealm's current user > > I didn't find the ConnectionHandle ... it's an interface but where is my > instance of "ConnectionHandle"?
