[jboss-user] [JBoss Portal] - Injecting user/role using http headers
Is it possible to inject the user and role information from an external authentication
engine through HTTP headers? I want to somehow configure the portal to blindly use the
user/role that are being passed as HTTP headers in the first request.
From what I have been reading so far, I believe it's possible to
write a custom login module and override validatePassword method to not verify the
password in portal's data source. But I am not sure how I can make the portal blindly
use the user/role strings in the HTTP header of the incoming request?
