     [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBWEB-228?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Remy Maucherat resolved JBWEB-228.
----------------------------------

        Labels:   (was: as7 web)
    Resolution: Rejected

Configuring authenticators will continue to be done using the valve element, since authenticators are valves, they do not need a separate element.

> Please add an option to set and configure an Authenticator (Valve) globally for all applications in a JBoss by using standard JBoss mechanisms like domain.xml, standalone.xml and DMR, so that it would be possible to reference an Authenticator like this:
> web.xml
> <login-config>
>      <auth-method>CUSTOM</auth-method>
> </login-config>
> To achieve this I had to modify:
> ...\modules\org\jboss\as\web\main\jbossweb-7.0.X.Final.jar\org\apache\catalina\startup\Authenticators.properties
> CUSTOM=<full qualified authenticator class name>
> which certainly is not a good way.
