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.

Hi,
I'm not sure I understand how you get the username and password from
your users..
