JBossRemotingGateway doesn't support Http BASIC Auth (and probably more) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: JBESB-807 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBESB-807 Project: JBoss ESB Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Transports Affects Versions: 4.2 Milestone Release 3 Reporter: Tom Fennelly Assignee: Tom Fennelly Fix For: 4.x Talked with Ron Sigal and he thinks we might have to explicitly use the Servlet transport (i.e. the CoyoteInvoker might not be configurable for BASIC auth). Here's what Ron said exactly..... "1. HTTPServerInvoker is obsolete. It's been replaced by CoyoteInvoker. 2. According to my O'Reilly Tomcat book, BASIC authorization is configured in the web.xml file by the <login-config> element. But CoyoteInvoker doesn't use the full Tomcat implementation, just the Coyote adapter. I'm really not sure if the Coyote adapter has anything to do with the web.xml file. 3. There is another Remoting transport, the servlet transport, which really does use Tomcat. It uses a servlet as a front end to the server invoker. There's even a web.xml file: src\etc\web\web.xml in the Remoting project directory."
