+

+<p>A <strong>Realm</strong> is a "database" of usernames and passwords that

+identify valid users of a web application (or set of web applications), plus

+an enumeration of the list of <em>roles</em> associated with each valid user.

+You can think of roles as similar to <em>groups</em> in Unix-like operating

+systems, because access to specific web application resources is granted to

+all users possessing a particular role (rather than enumerating the list of

+associated usernames).  A particular user can have any number of roles

+associated with their username.</p>

+

+<p>Although the Servlet Specification describes a portable mechanism for

+applications to <em>declare</em> their security requirements (in the

+<code>web.xml</code> deployment descriptor), there is no portable API

+defining the interface between a servlet container and the associated user

+and role information.  In many cases, however, it is desirable to "connect"

+a servlet container to some existing authentication database or mechanism

+that already exists in the production environment.  Therefore, Tomcat 6

+defines a Java interface (<code>org.apache.catalina.Realm</code>) that

+can be implemented by "plug in" components to establish this connection.

+Five standard plug-ins are provided, supporting connections to various

+sources of authentication information:</p>

+<ul>

+<li><a href="#JDBCRealm">JDBCRealm</a> - Accesses authentication information

+    stored in a relational database, accessed via a JDBC driver.</li>

+<li><a href="#DataSourceRealm">DataSourceRealm</a> - Accesses authentication

+    information stored in a relational database, accessed via a named JNDI

+    JDBC DataSource.</li>

+<li><a href="#JNDIRealm">JNDIRealm</a> - Accesses authentication information

+    stored in an LDAP based directory server, accessed via a JNDI provider.

+    </li>

+<li><a href="#UserDatabaseRealm">UserDatabaseRealm</a> - Accesses authentication

+    information stored in an UserDatabase JNDI resource, which is typically

+    backed by an XML document (<code>conf/tomcat-users.xml</code>).</li>

+<li><a href="#MemoryRealm">MemoryRealm</a> - Accesses authentication

+    information stored in an in-memory object collection, which is initialized

+    from an XML document (<code>conf/tomcat-users.xml</code>).</li>

+<li><a href="#JAASRealm">JAASRealm</a> - Accesses authentication information

+    through the Java Authentication &amp; Authorization Service (JAAS)

+    framework.</li>

+</ul>

+

+<p>It is also possible to write your own <code>Realm</code> implementation,

+and integrate it with Tomcat 6.  To do so, you need to:

+<ul>

+  <li>Implement <code>org.apache.catalina.Realm</code>,</li>

+  <li>Place your compiled realm in $CATALINA_HOME/lib,</li>

+  <li>Declare your realm as described in the "Configuring a Realm" section below,</li>

+  <li>Declare your realm to the <a href="mbeans-descriptor-howto.html">MBeans Descriptor</a>.</li>

+

+<p>For each of the standard <code>Realm</code> implementations, the

+user's password (by default) is stored in clear text.  In many

+environments, this is undesirable because casual observers of the

+authentication data can collect enough information to log on

+successfully, and impersonate other users.  To avoid this problem, the

+standard implementations support the concept of <em>digesting</em>

+user passwords.  This allows the stored version of the passwords to be

+encoded (in a form that is not easily reversible), but that the

+<code>Realm</code> implementation can still utilize for

+authentication.</p>

+

+<p>When a standard realm authenticates by retrieving the stored

+password and comparing it with the value presented by the user, you

+can select digested passwords by specifying the <code>digest</code>

+attribute on your <code>&lt;Realm&gt;</code> element.  The value for

+this attribute must be one of the digest algorithms supported by the

+<code>java.security.MessageDigest</code> class (SHA, MD2, or MD5).

+When you select this option, the contents of the password that is

+stored in the <code>Realm</code> must be the cleartext version of the

+password, as digested by the specified algorithm.</p>

+

+<p>When the <code>authenticate()</code> method of the Realm is called, the

+(cleartext) password specified by the user is itself digested by the same

+algorithm, and the result is compared with the value returned by the

+<code>Realm</code>.  An equal match implies that the cleartext version of the

+original password is the same as the one presented by the user, so that this

+user should be authorized.</p>

+

+<p>To calculate the digested value of a cleartext password, two convenience

+techniques are supported:</p>

+<ul>

+<li>If you are writing an application that needs to calculate digested

+    passwords dynamically, call the static <code>Digest()</code> method of the

+    <code>org.apache.catalina.realm.RealmBase</code> class, passing the

+    cleartext password and the digest algorithm name as arguments.  This

+    method will return the digested password.</li>

+<li>If you want to execute a command line utility to calculate the digested

+    password, simply execute

+    and the digested version of this cleartext password will be returned to

+    standard output.</li>

+</ul>

+

+<p>If using digested passwords with DIGEST authentication, the cleartext used

+   to generate the digest is different and the digest must use the MD5

+   algorithm. In the examples above <code>{cleartext-password}</code> must be

+   replaced with <code>{username}:{realm}:{cleartext-password}</code>. For

+   example, in a development environment this might take the form

+   <code>testUser:Authentication required:testPassword</code>. The value for

+   <code>{realm}</code> is taken from the <code>&lt;realm-name&gt;</code>

+   element of the web application's <code>&lt;login-config&gt;</code>. If

+   not specified in web.xml, the default value of <code>Authentication

+   required</code> is used.</p>

+

+<p>To use either of the above techniques, the

+<code>$CATALINA_HOME/lib/catalina.jar</code> and 

+<code>$CATALINA_HOME/bin/tomcat-juli.jar</code> files will need to be

+on your class path to make the <code>RealmBase</code> class available.

+

+<h3>Introduction</h3>

+

+<p><strong>JDBCRealm</strong> is an implementation of the Tomcat 6

+<code>Realm</code> interface that looks up users in a relational database

+accessed via a JDBC driver.  There is substantial configuration flexibility

+that lets you adapt to existing table and column names, as long as your

+database structure conforms to the following requirements:</p>

+<ul>

+<li>There must be a table, referenced below as the <em>users</em> table,

+    that contains one row for every valid user that this <code>Realm</code>

+    should recognize.</li>

+<li>The <em>users</em> table must contain at least two columns (it may

+    contain more if your existing applications required it):

+    <ul>

+    <li>Username to be recognized by Tomcat when the user logs in.</li>

+    <li>Password to be recognized by Tomcat when the user logs in.

+        This value may in cleartext or digested - see below for more

+        information.</li>

+    </ul></li>

+<li>There must be a table, referenced below as the <em>user roles</em> table,

+    that contains one row for every valid role that is assigned to a

+    particular user.  It is legal for a user to have zero, one, or more than

+    one valid role.</li>

+<li>The <em>user roles</em> table must contain at least two columns (it may

+    contain more if your existing applications required it):

+    <ul>

+    <li>Username to be recognized by Tomcat (same value as is specified

+        in the <em>users</em> table).</li>

+    <li>Role name of a valid role associated with this user.</li>

+    </ul></li>

+</ul>

+

+<h3>Quick Start</h3>

+

+<p>To set up Tomcat to use JDBCRealm, you will need to follow these steps:</p>

+<ol>

+<li>If you have not yet done so, create tables and columns in your database

+    that conform to the requirements described above.</li>

+<li>Configure a database username and password for use by Tomcat, that has

+    at least read only access to the tables described above.  (Tomcat will

+    never attempt to write to these tables.)</li>

+<li>Place a copy of the JDBC driver you will be using inside the

+    <code>$CATALINA_HOME/lib</code> directory.

+    Note that <strong>only</strong> JAR files are recognized!</li>

+<li>Set up a <code>&lt;Realm&gt;</code> element, as described below, in your

+    <code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml</code> file.</li>

+<li>Restart Tomcat 6 if it is already running.</li>

+</ol>

+

+<h3>Realm Element Attributes</h3>

+

+<p>To configure JDBCRealm, you will create a <code>&lt;Realm&gt;</code>

+element and nest it in your <code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml</code> file,

+as described <a href="#Configuring a Realm">above</a>. The attributes for the

+JDBCRealm are defined in the <a href="config/realm.html">Realm</a> configuration

+documentation.</p>

+

+<h3>Example</h3>

+

+<h3>Additional Notes</h3>

+

+<p>JDBCRealm operates according to the following rules:</p>

+<ul>

+<li>When a user attempts to access a protected resource for the first time,

+    Tomcat 6 will call the <code>authenticate()</code> method of this

+    <code>Realm</code>.  Thus, any changes you have made to the database

+    directly (new users, changed passwords or roles, etc.) will be immediately

+    reflected.</li>

+<li>Once a user has been authenticated, the user (and his or her associated

+    roles) are cached within Tomcat for the duration of the user's login.

+    (For FORM-based authentication, that means until the session times out or

+    is invalidated; for BASIC authentication, that means until the user

+    closes their browser).  The cached user is <strong>not</strong> saved and

+    restored across sessions serialisations. Any changes to the database

+    information for an already authenticated user will <strong>not</strong> be

+    reflected until the next time that user logs on again.</li>

+<li>Administering the information in the <em>users</em> and <em>user roles</em>

+<h3>Introduction</h3>

+

+<p><strong>DataSourceRealm</strong> is an implementation of the Tomcat 6

+<code>Realm</code> interface that looks up users in a relational database

+accessed via a JNDI named JDBC DataSource.  There is substantial configuration

+flexibility that lets you adapt to existing table and column names, as long

+as your database structure conforms to the following requirements:</p>

+<ul>

+<li>There must be a table, referenced below as the <em>users</em> table,

+    that contains one row for every valid user that this <code>Realm</code>

+    should recognize.</li>

+<li>The <em>users</em> table must contain at least two columns (it may

+    contain more if your existing applications required it):

+    <ul>

+    <li>Username to be recognized by Tomcat when the user logs in.</li>

+    <li>Password to be recognized by Tomcat when the user logs in.

+        This value may in cleartext or digested - see below for more

+        information.</li>

+    </ul></li>    

+<li>There must be a table, referenced below as the <em>user roles</em> table,

+    that contains one row for every valid role that is assigned to a

+    particular user.  It is legal for a user to have zero, one, or more than

+    one valid role.</li>

+<li>The <em>user roles</em> table must contain at least two columns (it may

+    contain more if your existing applications required it):

+    <ul>

+    <li>Username to be recognized by Tomcat (same value as is specified

+        in the <em>users</em> table).</li>

+    <li>Role name of a valid role associated with this user.</li>

+    </ul></li>

+</ul>

+

+<h3>Quick Start</h3>

+                  

+<p>To set up Tomcat to use DataSourceRealm, you will need to follow these steps:</p>

+<ol>              

+<li>If you have not yet done so, create tables and columns in your database

+    that conform to the requirements described above.</li>

+<li>Configure a database username and password for use by Tomcat, that has

+    at least read only access to the tables described above.  (Tomcat will

+    never attempt to write to these tables.)</li>

+<li>Configure a JNDI named JDBC DataSource for your database.  Refer to the

+    <a href="jndi-datasource-examples-howto.html">JNDI DataSource Example HOW-TO</a>

+    for information on how to configure a JNDI named JDBC DataSource.</li>

+<li>Set up a <code>&lt;Realm&gt;</code> element, as described below, in your

+    <code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml</code> file.</li>

+<li>Restart Tomcat 6 if it is already running.</li>

+</ol>

+

+<h3>Realm Element Attributes</h3>

+

+<p>To configure DataSourceRealm, you will create a <code>&lt;Realm&gt;</code>

+element and nest it in your <code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml</code> file,

+as described <a href="#Configuring a Realm">above</a>. The attributes for the

+DataSourceRealm are defined in the <a href="config/realm.html">Realm</a>

+configuration documentation.</p>

+

+<h3>Introduction</h3>

+

+<p><strong>JNDIRealm</strong> is an implementation of the Tomcat 6

+<code>Realm</code> interface that looks up users in an LDAP directory

+server accessed by a JNDI provider (typically, the standard LDAP

+provider that is available with the JNDI API classes). The realm

+supports a variety of approaches to using a directory for

+authentication.</p>

+

+<h4>Connecting to the directory</h4>

+

+<p>The realm's connection to the directory is defined by the

+<strong>connectionURL</strong> configuration attribute. This is a URL

+whose format is defined by the JNDI provider. It is usually an LDAP

+URL that specifies the domain name of the directory server to connect

+to, and optionally the port number and distinguished name (DN) of the

+required root naming context.</p>

+

+<p>If you have more than one provider you can configure an

+<strong>alternateURL</strong>.  If a socket connection can not be

+made to the provider at the <strong>connectionURL</strong> an

+attempt will be made to use the <strong>alternateURL</strong>.</p>

+

+<p>When making a connection in order to search the directory and

+retrieve user and role information, the realm authenticates itself to

+the directory with the username and password specified by the

+<strong>connectionName</strong> and

+<strong>connectionPassword</strong> properties. If these properties

+are not specified the connection is anonymous. This is sufficient in

+many cases.

+</p>

+

+

+<h4>Selecting the user's directory entry</h4>

+

+<p>Each user that can be authenticated must be represented in the

+directory by an individual entry that corresponds to an element in the

+initial <code>DirContext</code> defined by the

+<strong>connectionURL</strong> attribute. This user entry must have an

+attribute containing the username that is presented for

+authentication.</p>

+

+<p>Often the distinguished name of the user's entry contains the

+username presented for authentication but is otherwise the same for

+all users. In this case the <strong>userPattern</strong> attribute may

+be used to specify the DN, with "{0}" marking where

+the username should be substituted.</p>

+

+<p>Otherwise the realm must search the directory to find a unique entry

+containing the username. The following attributes configure this

+search:

+

+     <ul>

+     <li><strong>userBase</strong> - the entry that is the base of

+         the subtree containing users.  If not specified, the search

+         base is the top-level context.</li>

+

+     <li><strong>userSubtree</strong> - the search scope. Set to

+         <code>true</code> if you wish to search the entire subtree

+         rooted at the <strong>userBase</strong> entry. The default value

+         of <code>false</code> requests a single-level search

+         including only the top level.</li>

+

+     <li><strong>userSearch</strong> - pattern specifying the LDAP

+         search filter to use after substitution of the username.</li>

+

+    </ul>

+</p>

+

+

+<h4>Authenticating the user</h4>

+

+<ul>

+<li>

+<p><b>Bind mode</b></p>

+

+<p>By default the realm authenticates a user by binding to

+the directory with the DN of the entry for that user and the password

+presented by the user. If this simple bind succeeds the user is considered to

+be authenticated.</p>

+

+<p>For security reasons a directory may store a digest of the user's

+password rather than the clear text version (see <a href="#Digested Passwords">Digested Passwords</a> for more information). In that case,

+as part of the simple bind operation the directory automatically

+computes the correct digest of the plaintext password presented by the

+user before validating it against the stored value. In bind mode,

+therefore, the realm is not involved in digest processing. The

+<strong>digest</strong> attribute is not used, and will be ignored if

+set.</p>

+</li>

+

+<li>

+<p><b>Comparison mode</b></p>

+<p>Alternatively, the realm may retrieve the stored

+password from the directory and compare it explicitly with the value

+presented by the user. This mode is configured by setting the

+<strong>userPassword</strong> attribute to the name of a directory

+attribute in the user's entry that contains the password.</p>

+

+<p>Comparison mode has some disadvantages. First, the

+<strong>connectionName</strong> and

+<strong>connectionPassword</strong> attributes must be configured to

+allow the realm to read users' passwords in the directory. For

+security reasons this is generally undesirable; indeed many directory

+implementations will not allow even the directory manager to read

+these passwords. In addition, the realm must handle password digests

+itself, including variations in the algorithms used and ways of

+representing password hashes in the directory. However, the realm may

+sometimes need access to the stored password, for example to support

+HTTP Digest Access Authentication (RFC 2069). (Note that HTTP digest

+authentication is different from the storage of password digests in

+the repository for user information as discussed above).

+</p>

+</li>

+</ul>

+

+<h4>Assigning roles to the user</h4>

+

+<p>The directory realm supports two approaches to the representation

+of roles in the directory:</p>

+

+<ul>

+<li>

+<p><b>Roles as explicit directory entries</b></p>

+

+<p>Roles may be represented by explicit directory entries. A role

+entry is usually an LDAP group entry with one attribute

+containing the name of the role and another whose values are the

+distinguished names or usernames of the users in that role.  The

+following attributes configure a directory search to

+find the names of roles associated with the authenticated user:</p>

+

+<ul>

+<li><strong>roleBase</strong> - the base entry for the role search.

+    If not specified, the search base is the top-level directory

+    context.</li>

+

+<li><strong>roleSubtree</strong> - the search

+    scope. Set to <code>true</code> if you wish to search the entire

+    subtree rooted at the <code>roleBase</code> entry. The default

+    value of <code>false</code> requests a single-level search

+    including the top level only.</li>

+

+<li><strong>roleSearch</strong> - the LDAP search filter for

+    selecting role entries. It optionally includes pattern

+    replacements "{0}" for the distinguished name and/or "{1}" for the

+    username of the authenticated user.</li>

+

+<li><strong>roleName</strong> - the attribute in a role entry

+     containing the name of that role.</li>

+

+<li><strong>roleNested</strong> - enable nested roles. Set to

+     <code>true</code> if you want to nest roles in roles. If configured

+     every newly found roleName and distinguished

+     Name will be recursively tried for a new role search.

+     The default value is <code>false</code>.</li>

+

+</ul>

+

+</li>

+</ul>

+

+<ul>

+<li>

+<p><b>Roles as an attribute of the user entry</b></p>

+

+<p>Role names may also be held as the values of an attribute in the

+user's directory entry. Use <strong>userRoleName</strong> to specify

+the name of this attribute.</p>

+

+</li>

+</ul>

+<p>A combination of both approaches to role representation may be used.</p>

+

+<h3>Quick Start</h3>

+

+<p>To set up Tomcat to use JNDIRealm, you will need to follow these steps:</p>

+<ol>

+<li>Make sure your directory server is configured with a schema that matches

+    the requirements listed above.</li>

+<li>If required, configure a username and password for use by Tomcat, that has

+    read only access to the information described above.  (Tomcat will

+    never attempt to modify this information.)</li>

+<li>Set up a <code>&lt;Realm&gt;</code> element, as described below, in your

+    <code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml</code> file.</li>

+<li>Restart Tomcat 6 if it is already running.</li>

+</ol>

+

+<h3>Realm Element Attributes</h3>

+

+<p>To configure JNDIRealm, you will create a <code>&lt;Realm&gt;</code>

+element and nest it in your <code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml</code> file,

+as described <a href="#Configuring a Realm">above</a>. The attributes for the

+JNDIRealm are defined in the <a href="config/realm.html">Realm</a> configuration

+documentation.</p>

+

+<h3>Example</h3>

+

+<p>Creation of the appropriate schema in your directory server is beyond the

+scope of this document, because it is unique to each directory server

+implementation.  In the examples below, we will assume that you are using a

+distribution of the OpenLDAP directory server (version 2.0.11 or later), which

+can be downloaded from

+<a href="http://www.openldap.org">http://www.openldap.org</a>.  Assume that

+

+<p>Now suppose that users are expected to enter their email address

+rather than their userid when logging in. In this case the realm must

+only group entry of which she is a member.</p>

+

+<p>Finally, to authenticate the user by retrieving

+<li>Once a user has been authenticated, the user (and his or her associated

+    closes their browser).  The cached user is <strong>not</strong> saved and

+    restored across sessions serialisations. Any changes to the directory

+    information for an already authenticated user will <strong>not</strong> be

+    reflected until the next time that user logs on again.</li>

+<li>Administering the information in the directory server

+<h3>Introduction</h3>

+

+<p><strong>UserDatabaseRealm</strong> is an implementation of the Tomcat 6

+<code>Realm</code> interface that uses a JNDI resource to store user

+information. By default, the JNDI resource is backed by an XML file. It is not

+designed for large-scale production use. At startup time, the UserDatabaseRealm

+loads information about all users, and their corresponding roles, from an XML

+document (by default, this document is loaded from

+<code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/tomcat-users.xml</code>). The users, their passwords

+and their roles may all be editing dynamically, typically via JMX. Changes may

+be saved and will be reflected in the XML file.</p>

+

+<h3>Realm Element Attributes</h3>

+

+<p>To configure UserDatabaseRealm, you will create a <code>&lt;Realm&gt;</code>

+element and nest it in your <code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml</code> file,

+

+<h3>Introduction</h3>

+

+        <p><strong>JAASRealm</strong> is an implementation of the Tomcat

+6 <code>Realm</code> interface that authenticates users through the Java

+Authentication &amp; Authorization Service (JAAS) framework which is now

+provided as part of the standard J2SE API.</p>

+        <p>Using JAASRealm gives the developer the ability to combine

+practically any conceivable security realm with Tomcat's CMA. </p>

+        <p>JAASRealm is prototype for Tomcat of the JAAS-based

+J2EE authentication framework for J2EE v1.4, based on the <a href="http://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=196">JCP Specification

+Request 196</a> to enhance container-managed security and promote

+'pluggable' authentication mechanisms whose implementations would be

+container-independent.

+        </p>

+        <p>Based on the JAAS login module and principal (see <code>javax.security.auth.spi.LoginModule</code>

+and <code>javax.security.Principal</code>), you can develop your own

+security mechanism or wrap another third-party mechanism for

+integration with the CMA as implemented by Tomcat.

+        </p>

+

+        <h3>Quick Start</h3>

+        <p>To set up Tomcat to use JAASRealm with your own JAAS login module,

+ you will need to follow these steps:</p>

+        <ol>

+          <li>Write your own LoginModule, User and Role classes based

+on JAAS (see 

+<a href="http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/guide/security/jaas/tutorials/GeneralAcnOnly.html">the

+JAAS Authentication Tutorial</a> and 

+<a href="http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/guide/security/jaas/JAASLMDevGuide.html">the JAAS Login Module 

+Developer's Guide</a>) to be managed by the JAAS Login

+Context (<code>javax.security.auth.login.LoginContext</code>)

+When developing your LoginModule, note that JAASRealm's built-in <code>CallbackHandler</code>

+only recognizes the <code>NameCallback</code> and <code>PasswordCallback</code> at present.

+          </li>

+          <li>Although not specified in JAAS, you should create

+seperate classes to distinguish between users and roles, extending <code>javax.security.Principal</code>,

+so that Tomcat can tell which Principals returned from your login

+module are users and which are roles (see <code>org.apache.catalina.realm.JAASRealm</code>).

+Regardless, the first Principal returned is <em>always</em> treated as the user Principal.

+          </li>

+          <li>Place the compiled classes on Tomcat's classpath

+          </li>

+          <li>Set up a login.config file for Java (see <a href="http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/guide/security/jaas/tutorials/LoginConfigFile.html">JAAS

+LoginConfig file</a>) and tell Tomcat where to find it by specifying

+its location to the JVM, for instance by setting the environment

+variable: <code>JAVA_OPTS=$JAVA_OPTS -Djava.security.auth.login.config==$CATALINA_BASE/conf/jaas.config</code></li>

+

+          <li>Configure your security-constraints in your web.xml for

+the resources you want to protect</li>

+          <li>Configure the JAASRealm module in your server.xml </li>

+          <li>Restart Tomcat 6 if it is already running.</li>

+        </ol>

+        <h3>Realm Element Attributes</h3>

+        <p>To configure JAASRealm as for step 6 above, you create

+a <code>&lt;Realm&gt;</code> element and nest it in your 

+<code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml</code>

+file within your <code>&lt;Engine&gt;</code> node. The attributes for the

+JAASRealm are defined in the <a href="config/realm.html">Realm</a>

+configuration documentation.</p>

+

+<h3>Example</h3>

+

+<p>Here is an example of how your server.xml snippet should look.</p>

+

+<div align="left"><table cellspacing="4" cellpadding="0" border="0"><tr><td bgcolor="#023264" width="1" height="1"><img src="./images/void.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" vspace="0" hspace="0" border="0"></td><td bgcolor="#023264" height="1"><img src="./images/void.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" vspace="0" hspace="0" border="0"></td><td bgcolor="#023264" width="1" height="1"><img src="./images/void.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" vspace="0" hspace="0" border="0"></td></tr><tr><td bgcolor="#023264" width="1"><img src="./images/void.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" vspace="0" hspace="0" border="0"></td><td bgcolor="#ffffff" height="1"><pre>

+&lt;Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.JAASRealm"

+                appName="MyFooRealm"

+    userClassNames="org.foobar.realm.FooUser"

+    roleClassNames="org.foobar.realm.FooRole"/&gt;

+</pre></td><td bgcolor="#023264" width="1"><img src="./images/void.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" vspace="0" hspace="0" border="0"></td></tr><tr><td bgcolor="#023264" width="1" height="1"><img src="./images/void.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" vspace="0" hspace="0" border="0"></td><td bgcolor="#023264" height="1"><img src="./images/void.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" vspace="0" hspace="0" border="0"></td><td bgcolor="#023264" width="1" height="1"><img src="./images/void.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" vspace="0" hspace="0" border="0"></td></tr></table></div>

+

+<p>It is the responsibility of your login module to create and save User and 

+Role objects representing Principals for the user 

+(<code>javax.security.auth.Subject</code>). If your login module doesn't 

+create a user object but also doesn't throw a login exception, then the 

+Tomcat CMA will break and you will be left at the 

+http://localhost:8080/myapp/j_security_check URI or at some other 

+unspecified location.</p>

+

+        <p>The flexibility of the JAAS approach is two-fold: </p>

+        <ul>

+          <li>you can carry out whatever processing you require behind

+the scenes in your own login module.</li>

+          <li>you can plug in a completely different LoginModule by changing the configuration 

+and restarting the server, without any code changes to your application.</li>

+        </ul>

+

+        <h3>Additional Notes</h3>

+        <ul>

+          <li>When a user attempts to access a protected resource for

+              the first time, Tomcat 6 will call the <code>authenticate()</code>

+              method of this <code>Realm</code>.  Thus, any changes you have made in

+              the security mechanism directly (new users, changed passwords or

+              roles, etc.) will be immediately reflected.</li>

+          <li>Once a user has been authenticated, the user (and his or

+              her associated roles) are cached within Tomcat for the duration of

+              the user's login.  For FORM-based authentication, that means until

+              the session times out or is invalidated; for BASIC authentication,

+              that means until the user closes their browser.  Any changes to the

+              security information for an already authenticated user will <strong>not</strong>

+              be reflected until the next time that user logs on again.</li>

+          <li>As with other <code>Realm</code> implementations, digested passwords

+              are supported if the <code>&lt;Realm&gt;</code> element in <code>server.xml</code>

+              contains a <code>digest</code> attribute; JAASRealm's <code>CallbackHandler</code>

+              will digest the password prior to passing it back to the <code>LoginModule</code></li>  

+        </ul>

+    <h3>Introduction</h3>

+

+    <p><strong>CombinedRealm</strong> is an implementation of the Tomcat 6

+    <code>Realm</code> interface that authenticates users through one or more

+    sub-Realms.</p>

+

+    <p>Using CombinedRealm gives the developer the ability to combine multiple

+    Realms of the same or different types. This can be used to authenticate

+    against different sources, provide fall back in case one Realm fails or for

+    any other purpose that requires multiple Realms.</p>

+

+    <p>Sub-realms are defined by nesting <code>Realm</code> elements inside the

+    <code>Realm</code> element that defines the CombinedRealm. Authentication

+    will be attempted against each <code>Realm</code> in the order they are

+    listed. Authentication against any Realm will be sufficient to authenticate

+    the user.</p>

+

+    <h3>Realm Element Attributes</h3>

+    <p>To configure a CombinedRealm, you create a <code>&lt;Realm&gt;</code>

+    element and nest it in your <code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml</code>

+    file within your <code>&lt;Engine&gt;</code> or <code>&lt;Host&gt;</code>.

+    You can also nest inside a <code>&lt;Context&gt;</code> node in a

+    <code>context.xml</code> file.</p>

+    

+<h3>Example</h3>

+

+<p>Here is an example of how your server.xml snippet should look to use a

+UserDatabase Realm and a DataSource Realm.</p>

+

+    <h3>Introduction</h3>

+

+    <p><strong>LockOutRealm</strong> is an implementation of the Tomcat 6

+    <code>Realm</code> interface that extends the CombinedRealm to provide lock

+    out functionality to provide a user lock out mechanism if there are too many

+    failed authentication attempts in a given period of time.</p>

+    

+    <p>To ensure correct operation, there is a reasonable degree of

+    synchronisation in this Realm.</p>

+    

+    <p>This Realm does not require modification to the underlying Realms or the

+    associated user storage mechanisms. It achieves this by recording all failed

+    logins, including those for users that do not exist. To prevent a DOS by

+    deliberating making requests with invalid users (and hence causing this

+    cache to grow) the size of the list of users that have failed authentication

+    is limited.</p>

+

+    <p>Sub-realms are defined by nesting <code>Realm</code> elements inside the

+    <code>Realm</code> element that defines the LockOutRealm. Authentication

+    will be attempted against each <code>Realm</code> in the order they are

+    listed. Authentication against any Realm will be sufficient to authenticate

+    the user.</p>

+

+    <h3>Realm Element Attributes</h3>

+    <p>To configure a LockOutRealm, you create a <code>&lt;Realm&gt;</code>

+    element and nest it in your <code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml</code>

+    file within your <code>&lt;Engine&gt;</code> or <code>&lt;Host&gt;</code>.

+    You can also nest inside a <code>&lt;Context&gt;</code> node in a

+    <code>context.xml</code> file. The attributes for the

+    LockOutRealm are defined in the <a href="config/realm.html">Realm</a>

+    configuration documentation.</p>
