[jboss-user] [Clustering/JBoss] - Securing Cluster: JGroup AUTH

[hollowm]

I'm trying to 'secure' a JBoss cluster (3 nodes) so that new nodes that are put up on the network do not join without proper authorization.

I have configured the cluster-service.xml to give the cluster a unique name, so I can avoid problems with the default settings.  What I would like to do, however, is secure it such that a node must pass some authorization to join (such as a username/password from an LDAP repository).

I have been searching for information on the JGroups AUTH, but is seems to be few and far between (only these urls, not very useful: http://blogs.jboss.com/blog/bela/2005/12/16/JGroups_and_authentication_or_how_AUTH_came_to_be.txt and
http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=Authentication
and finally, 
http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=JGroupsAUTH)

Is there more information out there on setting this up that I'm not looking in the right place for?  This seems like it should be somewhat trivial, but I can't find it...

Thanks for help or pointers.
