You could implement your own authenticator,
extending the class org.apache.catalina.authenticator.AuthenticatorBase

https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/tomcat/tc6.0.x/trunk/java/org/apache/catalina/authenticator/AuthenticatorBase.java?view=markup
protected abstract boolean authenticate(Request request, Response response, LoginConfig config) throws IOException;

This would require a bit customization of Tomcat, but I would implement my own class, and my own authentication scheme

Hello:
I am trying to integrate my application with an SSO partner application.

After successfully logging into the partner app, I will be redirected
and only provided a username to log into my tomcat Form Authentication
app. I am using a DataSourceRealm to check for both Users and User
Roles.

Are there any suggestions as to how I can still authenticate() through
the tomcat container without providing a password?

Thanks for your attention,

Beau
