Subject: [grouper-users] lite ui and authentication mechanism

Hi,

Can somebody please confirm the following?

I was trying to write a custom authentication mechanism and hook it into the 
Prototype Lite UI, as described
here: https://spaces.internet2.edu/display/Grouper/Authentication

But I think this won't work, because the mechanisms described there are only 
for grouper-ws.
The lite UI servlet that handles the AJAX calls from grouper.html, or rather 
the service logic classes used by the
lite UI servlet, call a static method of the GrouperUI filter to get the 
remote user though.

So there's no configuration-only way to change the authentication mechanism 
for this UI, right?

Thanks!

Martin
