Hello,

I'm using form based authentication and JSP to authenticate a user's login 
details via a RADIUS server, only once the user has been authenticated I 
can't leapfrog back into to the main IdP process of generating the 
Authentication Assertion. I was hoping there was some way to call or 
trigger the doGet() method described within IdPResponder.java from a JSP 
page.

My assumption is that the page is already running in the IdPResponder 
servlet, that it's been initialised and all I need to do is call the 
doGet() however I'm obviously mistaken as I know you're not meant 
access this directly and if I do try to I get an "HTTP method GET is 
not supported by this URL" error message.

I'm hoping someone here can suggest a way of doing what I want to, or 
alternatively describe another way of generating the Authentication 
Assertion.

Thanks,
