Hi
I want
Tomcat authentication like company id / username / Password so it looks i should go for Form based authentication ....
1) I wrote login.jsp and error.jsp ;
2)web.xml
<login-config>
<auth-method>FORM</auth-method>
<realm-name>MyFirst Protected Area</realm-name>
<form-login-config>
<form-login-page>/login.jsp<;/form-login-page>
<form-error-page>/error.jsp<;/form-error-page>
</form-login-config>
</login-config>
3 )configured Realm in server.xml of tomcat className="org.apache.catalina.realm.DataSourceRealm";
Now issue is tomcat handles this j_security_check action and i want the j_companyid field in my application ... so how can i get it ....
Can we write an class that will process this authentication and pass insted of let tomcat handel it ?
OR
any configuration that can handel this j_companyid and pass on to application....?
Should we need to write our own Realm if so ....then how to ?
Thanks
Chetan
