Good Morning Dave...

I would start by referencing this link
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/cgi-howto.html

either
setup security in %JAVA_HOME%/lib/security/java.policy and start java with security manager enabled e.g.
JAVA -Djava.security.policy=java.policy %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\bootstrap.jar

OR
read everything you can on configuring %CATALINA_HOME%/conf/catalina.policy
and configure the necessary options in catalina.policy *this link should get you started*
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-4.1-doc/security-manager-howto.html

Subject: ACL (access control list) tutorial or example


I posted this on comp.lang.java.security yesterday, but haven't gotten a single answer, so I'm hoping you people can help:

I'm trying to implement ACL's in my Tomcat-based webapp, and am having trouble applying what I read in the docs and in my googling to my real-life application. Could somebody please point me to a good tutorial or some example code that shows how to set and check the permissions (read only vs read/write, administration vs general user, etc) that a given user will have to access a given object?

I've got the authentication part going with no trouble, but am having trouble with the access control side of things.

TIA!
Dave
