So why do we need username/cred in the ds.xml,  it is for cases when you want to use your own homegrown login module (that is not part of the JBoss JCA login modules). -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/538359#538359] Start a new discussion in JCA Development at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
