[jboss-dev-forums] [JMX Development] - Securing JMXConnector (RMI) via SSL

hmr_mueller [http://community.jboss.org/people/hmr_mueller] created the discussion "Securing JMXConnector (RMI) via SSL" To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/568997#568997 -------------------------------------------------------------- In JBoss 6 M4 the JMXConnector defined in jmx-jboss-beans.xml (org.jboss.system.server.jmx.JMXConnector) does not allow to use SSL although this can be done with standard Java JMX over RMI classes. The SocketFactories are hard coded:          DefaultClientSocketFactory clientSocketFactory = new DefaultClientSocketFactory();          clientSocketFactory.setBindAddress(hostname);          DefaultSocketFactory serverSocketFactory = new DefaultSocketFactory();          serverSocketFactory.setBindAddress(hostname);          registry = LocateRegistry.createRegistry(rmiRegistryPort, clientSocketFactory, serverSocketFactory); Since credentials and other sensitive data are sent over the wire, using SSL should be possible without writing your own JMXConnector.
