While it's true that a single JVM instance only allows specification of one login.config file at a time, that file can contain multiple entries, one for each webapp, if needed. Each JAAS <Realm> must have an appName attribute pointing to its subsection of the login.config file. Have you looked at the Tomcat doc for JAASRealm? http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/realm-howto.html#JAASRealm That's pretty much all we used to get it running, other than the JVM's JAAS config. The key part is putting your LoginModule and Principal classes under the webapp's WEB-INF directory, putting the <Realm> inside the webapp's <Context> element, and setting useContextClassLoader to true. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
