I would like to use form-based authentication as outlined in the book JavaServer Faces (O'REILLY). But instead of letting Tomcat manage the users, I would like to manage them myself: store them in a database etc. Can anyone give me a few pointers?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks! Just what I was looking for. I suppose I have to implement my own realm. I am using Hibernate. Any pointers for that?
