RE: osuser ldap

Hi Dave,
	Let me know how you go. I have to work out the same thing for OSUser
with WLS 7. My app. is currently on the back burner, as I work on something
else, but I'll have to pick it up soon.

	Also, you could consider just using declarative security in the J2EE
container for authentication / authorisation and holding profile
information, correlated with the username gained from getUserPrincipal() in
the request, in OSUser. This seemed the easiest workaround for me, if LDAP
was being too fussy.

Subject: RE: [Opensymphony-developers] osuser ldap


I don't know too much about LDAP, but in this case we would just have to
authenticate users and check to see that their in a group.  I would imagine
profile-related data would be nice, but we don't need it.

This app will be running in a Weblogic 7 J2EE container so now I'm trying to
see
if I can connect to WL's security realm (which is already connected to LDAP)
via
osuser.  Are there any examples or instructions for this?  Currently I have
the
EJBs and the app deployed in an EAR and I get an error from osuser about the
"defaultDS" not found.

Thanks!
