How You Can Configure the OpenROAD Server Java Client Gatekeeper2
The new gatekeeper (source: OpenROADGatekeeper.java) provides an out-of-the-box experience by using only the compiled *.class files and configuration options, which you can set in the web.xml file. The class files and web.xml file are contained in the WEB-INF subdirectory, which you can copy directly into a Tomcat webapps subdirectory. The new class names are used in order to keep the old SRS.* files for reference.
The installed files for this original gatekeeper are listed in OpenROAD Server Java Client Gatekeeper2 Components (see OpenROAD Server Java Client Gatekeeper2 Components).
The servlet class itself should work with different web servers (for JBoss, WebSphere, WebLogic, and so on); no Tomcat-specific Java functions were used. BASIC authentication should be supported by any web server; this is why none of the more advanced options were used. Configuration files (web.xml for Tomcat 5.0 or higher) might be slightly different, but it should not be difficult to convert them.
