Hello Petros,

For SSO:

In Tomcat, we've put Struts apps in contexts alongside an OpenCms 
context within a <Host... block, used a Single Sign On (SSO) valve, and 
in a Struts action (CmsAction) use HttpURLConnection while passing in 
the JSESSIONIDSSO cookie to get SSO across 'external' struts apps and 
OpenCms.

Good luck

Jack

Portal application.  I'd recommend just deploying the opencms WAR on the
same application server, and then using simple servlet RequestDispatcher
includes to load and display the content.  This strategy is much easier than
trying to make API calls to load the content, because OpenCms itself makes
heavy use of the servlet/JSP container to render the content.  Loading the
documents from the database is unlikely to give you something very useful.

work correctly, as well as a subclass of HttpServletResponseWrapper to
capture the results (as I did not want to immediately include the cms
document in the current response).  You can send me an email directly if you
want to discuss this approach in more detail.
