--------------------------------------------------------------
When you write your own custom login module (or Authorization Module or Audit Provider or
Mapping Provider), then you have two choices as to where the class files exist in JBoss
AS7.1
h2. Options
h2.
1. Package them as part of your EE archives (such as WEB-INF/classes or WEB-INF/lib)
2. Place in a separate module in the modules directory of JBoss AS 7.1
Option 1 is covered in
http://community.jboss.org/docs/DOC-16811
http://community.jboss.org/wiki/JBossAS7SecurityDomainModel
Option 2 is described here with an example:
Assume we have a web application called form-auth.war which utilizes form authentication.
It is attached to the article.
It uses a security domain form-auth that will be defined in
standalone/configuration/standalone.xml as follows:
<security-domain name="form-auth" cache-type="default">
<authentication>
<login-module code="custom.MyLoginModule" flag="required"
module="custom_module">
<module-option name="usersProperties"
value="users.properties"/>
<module-option name="rolesProperties"
value="roles.properties"/>
</login-module>
</authentication>
</security-domain>
Note: You will have to download the attached custom_module.zip and unzip it in the modules
directory of AS7.1
jboss-as-7.1.0.Alpha2-SNAPSHOT/modules$ ls -la

If everything is ok, when you start AS7.1, then you should be able to access
http://localhost:8080/form-auth/ http://localhost:8080/form-auth/
