> Right now for server to server communication via a remote-outbound-connection, we expect a static username to be specified (along with the security realm). User applications which use this remote-outbound-connection, for example an EJB application, do not have much control over the user/pass information, since the username is static. This further acts a drawback since the username that's used to connect to the remote server will be used as the (application) user who invoked the EJB.
> It would be good to allow more control over the authentication for the remote-outbound-connection.
