org.apache.maven.continuum.security.ContinuumAuthenticator in continuum-core must implement the Acegi interface. We need to translate the continuum user details to acegi user details.

Then it can be used in plexus-application.xml in continuum-webapp instead of the configured in memory database and the login page should authenticate through it, when accessing http://localhost:8080/continuum/secure/debug.jsp

Instead of implement acegi interface in ContinuumAuthenticator, I'd prefer you create a sub class of ContinuumAuthenticator out of continuum-core. In a continuum-acegi module?

Here's a patch for converting ContinuumUser to acegi UserDetails in ContinuumAuthenticator. One question though, where can we get the roles for the users?

Henry, did you see my previous comment? It isn't a good idea to add acegi stuff in continuum-core.

I created continuum-acegi module and moved out the acegi implementations from ContinuumAuthentication.
