I'll try to avoid the hack method if possible. Let me clarify the two requirements that my authentication process must meet. It must use an existing stored procedure that will return a login success/fail response, and it needs additional credentials (username, password, and at least one other field, if not more.)
Which of the two suggestions should I be looking at? (JAASRealm or FormAuthenticator?) I can't tell the conceptual difference between these classes, and which can solve my problem. Also, is it correct to say that both suggestions are Tomcat-specific? (Realms and FormAuthenticator.) Thanks.
