Hi, <br><br>I'm running into problems using the SPNEGO authenticator in AS7. <br>I created a module with the costumized picketbox jar, modified the <br>Authenticators.properties in jbossweb-7.0.0.CR1.jar and deployed the test <br>
toolkit. <br><br>At first sight the deployment process works. But testing the application, <br>it can't find the required login modules configured in standalone.xml. <br>So I debugged the complete process and compared my application with a working<br>
BASIC authentication jar. <br><br>Deploying the BasicAuthentication.jar, the required configuration is set in <br>JaasConfigurationService.start(...). The configuration includes all the login<br>modules, configured in standalone.xml. <br>
<br>When I deploy the negotiation toolkit, the configuration is not set. The <br>authentication process tries to load the configuration in Configuration.getConfiguration() <br>but a new configuration instance is created with no login modules in it. <br>
<br>The authenticator is a subclass of AuthenticatorBase. <br>It seems that JBoss doesn't recognize that the application is JAAS enabled. <br><br>I don't see the difference between the BASIC authentication application and <br>
SPNEGO toolkit. Has somebody an explanation for this phenomenon?<br><br>Christoph<br>
