Hi,
I am a newbie to
JSF. One of the projects that i am currently involved in, has a requirement of single sign on (SSO) , where in the user will log into their windows workstation and they will open my web application deployed in
JBoss AS. Now my web application should get only the username/userid of the logged-in user from ActiveDirectoryServer and authenticate them against database(Only the users with userids stored in the database should have the access to application) entries.
If the user id is not in database, user should be taken to login page asking for the username and password. For this purpose, we are using JCIFS and have the necessary logic written in one class.
I need some help in how to invoke the method in this class as there wont be any action/event fired initially and how to provide the navigation to pages(login page/home page) depending on the user status.
Development environment::
Richfaces,SEAM,JPA,JBOSS AS
Thanks in advance,
Suresh
