Newbie question on JAAS and LDAP

D

davout

I'm looking into the idea of using JAAS for the first time to provide
authentication against an LDAP server.

The application itself uses the same LDAP server to persist its own data
model. This means that the application needs to gain access to the JNDI
'DirContext' that was used to authenticate the user within the LDAP
LoginModule implementation.

Question is... within the LDAP LoginModule implementation can I store the
'DirContext' somewhere and then retrieve it for use in my application code?
