Hi
In the past we've used LDAP as a PDP for authentication and authorisation. We do this as follows :
an LDAP group is created for every 'integration service'
an LDAP security profile is created for every 'integration service' - in this security profile, we specify the group membership requirement
we attach this security profile to the SoapInput node.
[list=]
Now I've a scenario, where I have a single HTTP flow, which is acting like a gateway for some back-end services. The authorisation has to be implemented basis a specific tags that comes in the input-message. There are some 25+ services (and more to come in the future). One way would be to put 25+ securityPEP nodes, (one for each operation), and route the message to the appropriate PEP node. Each PEP node would be assigned the appropriate (LDAP) securityProfile, to enforce the authorisation.
In this approach, as new operations get added, we'll have to add new securityPEP nodes.
I am trying to find a way to avoid this.
# Is there a way to 'override' the securityProfile at runtime ? I didn't find any LocalEnvironment override for it
# Any way of specifying the LDAP group name dynamically ? ( we need to check if the user has membership to a group that has the name of operation )
# any other way ? implement a JCN LDAP look up?

Unfortunately there is no way to override the Security Profile at runtime. Please raise an RFE for this if you would find this useful... _________________ MGK
