Thanks for your links, very interesting the one for WCD. I have a web application and I have an oracle database with oracle users. The request is to authenticate the oracle users and this was my issue. How do I query the database for passwords? I found out that I cannot do that, please see below link. (http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/ask/f?p=4950:61:15468414540126688::::P61_ID:...) So I will try for the moment to extract some users and passwords into a user defined table and I will try the form based authentication. My question is now how do I match the j_username and the j_password from the login form with the values from the database? Thanks.
