[jboss-user] [JBoss Portal] - HOWTO: Replace portal authentication and authorization

[arnieAustin]

I need to replace the portal's internal methods with a custom class we wrote internally. Though LDAP is used to authentication, the base functions aren't detailed enough for our needs. Authorization is done based on data from a database.

I know I'm supposed to implement UserModule and RoleModule but I cannot find any documentation on how to do that. The JavaDoc's show classes such as org.jboss.portal.core.impl.user.UserModule and *.Impl but I cannot descend that class as its not in any of the jars under the portal.sar/lib folder.

What are the fully qualified class names and what jar's are they supposed to be in? A URL to a document detailing how to make the portal use these new classes would be much appreciated. Esp since I'll probably have to create my own login and registration portlets.

Thanks!
