Hello I try to get the subject to store an additional principal containing UserId for audit purposes (subquestion: Is that a good idea). Unfortunately I get always another subject instance so I can't persist the UserId. this are my lookup trials: Subject subject = (Subject) PolicyContext.getContext("javax.security.auth.Subject.container"); Subject subject = (Subject) ic.lookup("java:jaas/tmsec/subject"); I always get a subject contained principals with correct username and roles. Has somebody an idea if the lookup has to be done different or if possibly something is missing somewhere else? I use jboss-4.2.3.GA Thanks in advance View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4197580#...
