Hello
I have a question on what a login.jsp page can access when
i use form based authentication. Can it access an EJB component, before actual authentication. This is because i
need to show some dynamic informatio on the login screen.
If not whats the alternative?
Also i am using struts.
thanks in advance

The login page can access an EJB (or anything else that can be called from a JSP). However, any components used in the login.jsp cannot themselves require authentication (because the user is not authenticated yet). -

thanks paul...so does this mean, if i have to disallow
access to other resources like EJBs, i need seperate
form of authentication? This is the situation...
I have an EJB component and may be called by more than one webclients.
I want some kind of authentication for the EJBs too...what is the
recommended strategy?...is there some entry in say ejb-jar.xml like
in web.xml to specify authentication...also can the same username and
password, provided to the login page be passed on to the EJB component?
thanks
