I tried this using the following jndi.properties file: | java.naming.factory.initial=org.jboss.security.jndi.JndiLoginInitialContextFactory | java.naming.provider.url=jnp://localhost:1099 | I then set the following in my client: | Properties env = new Properties(); | env.setProperty(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, principal); | env.setProperty(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, password); | Context ctx = new InitialContext(env); | But I get the exact same issue, so I don't think its related to accessing the SecurityAssociation directly.
