Authentication towards a custom JAAS module
All the user name and password authentication methods that are supported by Spotfire Server are implemented as Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS) modules. Spotfire also supports third-party JAAS modules.
You may therefore use a custom JAAS module, provided that it does the following:
- Validates user name and password authentication.
- Uses JAAS'
NameCallback
andPasswordCallback
objects for collecting the user names and passwords.
For more information about JAAS, consult the JAAS Reference Guide.
