[opencms-dev] login on published pages of non-editors

[bub habub]

hi alex,

thank you very much for ur answer.
one more question. where do i find all these packages.
somehow i feel that my installation is lacking of some
important modules. 
i'm searching for functionalities that are supposed to
be included but don't find them.
where do i find e.g     
org.opencms.jsp.CmsJspLoginBean?

if i knew what is predefined and what i can use it
would make my life easier. 

thanks 

jap
