Hi,

I'm trying to do the same thing myself. The only related info I can find so far is the Javaone demonstration No TS-1356

titled "Constructing a security authorization custom tag library"

Have a look at the specifics which would seem to provide comprehensive use of JAAS in a Web app.

http://servlet.java.sun.com/javaone/conf/sessions/1356/0-sf2001.jsp

I can't tell you how useful the session is as I havent done it yet.

I can tell you , though, that you have to pay for it.

I dont appreciate having to pay for Java technical info

just because Sun hastnt provided decent technical information and tutorials for their own security extension.

You don't have to pay for the doc, though, only for the conference -- here's the link to the slides: http://java.sun.com/javaone/javaone2001/pdfs/1356.pdf
