custom authentication
Hi,
Has anyone figured out a simple solution to customize authentication for JBoss Portal? I've searched the forum, but there seems to be no definitive answer. Would be nice if a solution was posted in the docs or Wiki by the JBoss team.
Basically, I'd like to authenticate users against my own db. But as a start, I created a custom LoginModule and placed it in login-config.xml. The code is below, which I got by following this post:
http://jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=118988
I can successfully login with any username/password, but I still see the "Login" link at the top right of the page after I login. I am beginning to assume there is something in the original org.jboss.portal.identity.auth.IdentityLoginModule code that is specific to JBP that normal login module implementors aren't aware of. But I don't have access to the IdentifyLoginModule's source code.
Any help is appreciated!
public class MyLoginModule extends AbstractServerLoginModule
{
private String username = null;
private Principal identity;
private Object password;
@Override
protected Principal getIdentity()
{
System.out.println("getIdentity(): " + identity);
return identity;
}
@Override
protected Group[] getRoleSets() throws LoginException
{
System.out.println("getRoleSets()");
Group rolesGroup = new SimpleGroup("Roles");
rolesGroup.addMember(new SimplePrincipal("Authenticated"));
rolesGroup.addMember(new SimplePrincipal("Admin"));
rolesGroup.addMember(new SimplePrincipal("Users"));
rolesGroup.addMember(identity);
return new Group[] {rolesGroup};
}
public boolean login()
throws LoginException
{
NameCallback nameCallback = new NameCallback("Enter username");
PasswordCallback pwdCallback = new PasswordCallback("Enter password", false);
try
{
callbackHandler.handle(new Callback[] {nameCallback, pwdCallback});
username = nameCallback.getName();
password = new String(pwdCallback.getPassword());
identity = new SimplePrincipal(username);
loginOk = true;
System.out.println("Username: " + username + ", password: " + password + ", Identity: " + identity);
return true;
}
catch (UnsupportedCallbackException exc)
{
LoginException le = new LoginException("Internal error!");
le.initCause(exc);
throw le;
}
catch (IOException exc)
{
LoginException le = new LoginException("Internal error!");
le.initCause(exc);
throw le;
}
}
}
