What are you using for Security on your own site? Container-managed
authentication or Spring Security per chance? The best way to integrate
Roller with some sort of single sign-on system is to use CAS.

Thanks Mraible .  But my site is running on jsp's i.e 2 tier architecture. there is only Db authentication for users . once db authenticated .then in login.jsp we create a httpsession with the credentials .

  that was the prob . we are not using any CAS and LDAP.  if i deploy the roller.war in different server. is there any possibility to get the session of the login.jsp to the Roller. means writing a filter with acegi(before logining into roller and directly accessing the home page of roller user)  of roller to check the httpsession like that....

thanks in adv

You could probably write a custom Authentication Provider for Spring
Security so it recognizes your session. Here's how I've programmatically
logged into Spring Security in the past (from an unprotected Action in the
same webapp).

        UsernamePasswordAuthenticationToken auth = new
UsernamePasswordAuthenticationToken(
                user.getUsername(), user.getConfirmPassword(),
user.getAuthorities());
        auth.setDetails(user);
        SecurityContextHolder.getContext().setAuthentication(auth);

Hope this helps,

Matt
