Hello All,

I am in the process of trying to implement a dedicated login handler for 
GoogleApps authentication.  I plan on having my GoogleApps login based 
on REMOTE_USER.  Idealy I would like to create /idp/Authn/GoogleApps so 
that I can leave the default REMOTE_USER (/idp/Authn/RemoteUser) 
available for future use.  Going through the archives I have seen a 
couple of ways of doing this.   One thread suggested using remote user 
filters.  Another says to create a custom handler jar in tomcat.  I 
don't think I need to write a handler because what I want is have the 
same functionality as REMOTE_USER, plus my java is not that great.  Is 
what I want to do possible without writing a custom handler?
