      Hi,

      The company where I work use their own authentication server and when user is authenticated, his username is put in session.
      When I go to the portal, I'm redirected to authentication server and after sucessful authentication, I'm redirected to JBoss portal.

      The problem is that in JBoss portal, I'm not logged in. How can I do to tell Jboss portal to log in with the username that I got from the authentication server?

      I hope my question is clear enough.
      Thanks.

          Take a look at SSO section in the reference guide.

          You could provide your implementation of AuthenticationValve and specify that in your portal-server.war/WEB-INF/context.xml

          Like this.

           <Valve className="com.yourcompany.portal.identity.AuthenticationValve"
 logoutURL="/portal"
 />


          Make sure you have this class available in the classpath.
