JAAS

Does anybody know how to set up JAAS authentication on LiveCycle products?



I managed to have the LiveCycle User Manager get users and groups from LDAP, but authentication is still a mystery... The only user which can currently log in is the default "Administrator"



Thank you.

i have some idea but dont know how to implemente it



live cycle take our jaas application name as a login module and use



LoginContext ctx=new LoginContext(conf.getApplicationName,usernamePwdCallbackHandeler(username,Password))

ctx.login();



so just we make this login module and deploye it on jboss or any server .



i done one thing that user can login only using username which is available in ldap

I'd look into using a servlet filter in the web.xml. The servlet would do the custom jaas auth before getting to LC. You will need to replicate jaas users with LC users though since LC uses the user database for process ownership etc.
