[jboss-user] [Security & JAAS/JBoss] - Re: Cannot get JAAS to work

[henkie.maritz@iits]

I was under the impression that the iits-login-config.xml will be used instead of the default login-config.xml. I did not change login-config.xml at all.

I see that the following is defined in the login-config.xml:

    <!-- The default login configuration used by any security domain that
    does not have a application-policy entry with a matching name
    -->
    <application-policy name = "other">
       <!-- A simple server login module, which can be used when the number
       of users is relatively small. It uses two properties files:
       users.properties, which holds users (key) and their password (value).
       roles.properties, which holds users (key) and a comma-separated list of
       their roles (value).
       The unauthenticatedIdentity property defines the name of the principal
       that will be used when a null username and password are presented as is
       the case for an unuathenticated web client or MDB. If you want to
       allow such users to be authenticated add the property, e.g.,
       unauthenticatedIdentity="nobody"
       -->
       
          <login-module code = "org.jboss.security.auth.spi.UsersRolesLoginModule"
             flag = "required" />
       
    </application-policy>

So, you are right. But why does JBoss not pick up the policy defined as setout in the first post?
