Hi,
I would still need more information about how you get the username and
in which context.
request.getParameter() is in the context of the request. Does this mean
that in the environment you are in, everything request contains a
parameter with the username ?
If so then you need to modify checkAuth() and fill in the context with
the username from your request. You don't even need to implement
authenticate since it will be never called if you reimplement checkAuth

hi,
The username is being provided by the education - portal we are integrating xwiki into
(request.getParam(..). The password is a fixed string. The users are set up with these
credentials automatically, when they are being added to an xwiki group. Thats all working
- we just haven't been able to figure out ow to log users in then, with these same
username/password combinations.

your users..

hi,
thank you for the answer, but how *could* those two lines look like if
we get the username from the request and combine it with a given password?
the authenticate method which takes username,
password and context as
parameter doesn't seem to do what i expect.
