hi,
I'm still working on the user login from the educational plattform.
to be precise I'm stuck with reimplementing checkAuth().
when I fill in the username into the context with setUser() and then call checkAuth() with
the modified context the wiki-page is not accessible. but when I set the username directly
in the checkAuth() - method e.g. return new XWikiUser("test") - the wiki-page is
accessible.
Could you possibly provide me with a sample implementation of this method?

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.

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.
