Hi, I have implemented form based security on web app using JDBCRealm in server.xml file. It has been implemented. Now i want to use some pre-req before accessing any page in secure area say (faces/secure/main.xhtml).
My index page redirect to faces/secure/main.xhtml where it ask for login and then the page is shown. I want to interpret the request after the login and before main.xhtml. I have read different topics and it is not possible to implement Filter on j_security_check (not sure for tomcat 5.5+). Is there any way to implement on it or there is any alternate that i can interpret the request? (security constraint on /faces/secure/*) I have used an alternate index -> faces/secure/redirect.jsp -> login (by tomcat) and then faces/secure/redirect.jsp -> faces/secure/main.xhtml (redirecting to this page from redirect page). I implemented the FILTER on redirect.jsp. It is invoking but i am not liking the method. so any possible thing i can do? cheer, ..alee -- Muhammad Ali http://techboard.wordpress.com Software Engineer - E2ESP muhammadaliamin(at)gmail(dot)com
