Thanks Luis.  I can see a Tomcat Realm implementation being useful if
the OSUser framework works really well for LDAP auth, since I've had
mixed success with Tomcat's JNDIRealm.

I take it that since you've created a Tomcat Realm for OSUser that
you've managed to get a hold of the OSUser code somehow.  Is it possible
to get the code through means other than CVS?  I tried CVS since the
OSUser page mentioned it was only available that way.

I suppose I could just download JIRA, which uses OSUser, and grab the
libraries, but I would prefer the source and I have no way of knowing
what (if anything) has been modified by Atlassian in the OSUser class.
