As we are developing 'put' service in Ecogrid, we see a need to have a 
standalone Ecogrid authentication service which has two operations.
   1. login(String username, String password), which returns a sessionId.
   2. logout(String sessionId)

The sessionId will be later used by 'put' or 'get'.

DOne, plus we are migrating to a Web Service only implementation.
