Thanks for sticking with this. I did try getPrincipal as well and it doesn't look like that is being called either. It seems that the only method that is getting called is hasRole. I guess the question is how could I manipulate the login name there? If I use getName on the Principal that is passed in, it returns my NTLM login name. I can manipulate the name, but then how could I appropriately call super.hasRoles since GenericPrincipal requires a password.<br/><br/> Here is the code: public boolean hasRole(Principal principal, String roleName) { System.out.println("Starting hasRole"); System.out.println("Principal name: " + principal.getName()); int slash = principal.getName().indexOf('\\'); String newUser = slash > 0 ? principal.getName().substring(slash+1) : principal.getName(); System.out.println("New user is: " + newUser); System.out.println("Checking for role name: " + roleName); // need to create a new Principal here, I think boolean userHasRole = super.hasRole(newPrincipal, roleName); System.out.println("User has role: " + userHasRole); return userHasRole; } Thanks, Eric -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Question-about-Tomcat-IIS-and-NTLM-authentication-tp14997483p15033183.html Sent from the Tomcat - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
