[wildfly-dev] JMX authentication

[Darran Lofthouse]

Hello Rob,

I think that is actually going to be bug, I think this change has gone 
too far: -
  https://issues.jboss.org/browse/REMJMX-65

Essentially the supply of a callback handler has been taken as a flag 
that local auth is not desirable but actually that is not correct.

Regards,
Darran Lofthouse.
