Spring security 3.1.4 backdoor - spring

Question

I have this problem:
in a java web-app (with spring and spring-security 3.1.4) there's a sso authentication; this means the user authenticates as soon as he log in on his pc.
The configuration is this:
<sec:http>
<sec:logout />
<sec:form-login login-page="/login.jsp" default-target-url="/" />
<sec:anonymous username="guest" granted-authority="ROLE_GUEST" />
<sec:custom-filter ref="headersFilter" after="SECURITY_CONTEXT_FILTER" />
<sec:custom-filter ref="jaasFilter" after="SERVLET_API_SUPPORT_FILTER" />
</sec:http>
and this works (actually login.jsp doesn't exist because the user is already logged in as I said above).
Now the problem is that I want to have a "backdoor";this means there should be a login page for me and my team to test and mantain the app.
It should work like this:
-I call localhost/wepapp/myloginpage and I should see the myloginpage.jsp (this works now);
-I click on "login" button and I enter in the second " element" and if the login is ok then I should get redirected to "/" (this doesn't work and I'm simply redirected on "login");
-with the configuration below it seems that I can see "/" without authentication, too, if I call it (localhost/wepapp)
I tried this configuration but it doesn't work, I mean I can see "/" without authentication and I get redirected to login (I also tried other small variations but same result, more or less):
<sec:http pattern="/myloginpage">
<sec:logout />
<sec:form-login login-page="/myloginpage" default-target-url="/" />
</sec:http>
<sec:http pattern="/login">
<sec:logout />
<sec:form-login login-page="/login" default-target-url="/" />
<sec:anonymous username="guest" granted-authority="ROLE_GUEST" />
<sec:custom-filter ref="headersFilter" after="SECURITY_CONTEXT_FILTER" />
<sec:custom-filter ref="jaasFilter" after="SERVLET_API_SUPPORT_FILTER" />
</sec:http>
My myloginpage.jsp:
<form action="login" method="POST">
<table>
<tr>
<td>
Name
</td>
<td>
<input type="text" name="name">
</td>
</tr>
.........
</form>
I also have the controller for myloginpage:
#Controller
public class Myloginpage {
publicMyloginpage() {
}
#RequestMapping("/myloginpage")
public String home() {
return "myloginpage";
}
}
Thankx,

It seems you are missing the <intercept-url> tags to configure access to certain paths.
<sec:intercept-url pattern="/login*" access="IS_AUTHENTICATED_ANONYMOUSLY" />
<sec:intercept-url pattern="/secure/**" access="ROLE_USER" />
