Authorization against Active Directory

M

Miika Parvio

Hello!

I'm developping application, which should get authorization information
from Active Directory. I have managed to get single sign on
authentication work with JAAS, JNDI and krb5Module. Now I should get to
know authorization mechamisms of java. I'm using Windows 2003 server as
Active Directory provider. I have configured Authorization Manager of
windows to save authorization information to Active Directory. Only
problem is, that I dont't know how to access application spesific
authorization information from my client application? Where should I
start? I'm familiar with JNDI and krb5Module and JAAS authentication.
JAAS also offers authorization features, but I'm not sure, can I use it
in my case, because authorization information is saved to the AD. Does
JAAS authorization features support Active Directory?

I would be very grateful for any help!
