Hi. I am enjoying JBoss 5.0.1 JAAS security during implementing EJB3 application server beans and client.

I cannot use EJB3 client container, since it tries to access server immediately, before any piece of my code is exceuted. So, i do InitialContext.lookup(...) instead:
try{
  |     SecurityClient securityClient = SecurityClientFactory.getSecurityClient();
  |     securityClient.setSimple("vpumpkin", "vpumpkin");
  |     securityClient.login();
  | 
  |     Context context = new InitialContext();
  |     BlankService service = context.lookup("IB-Automation/BlankServiceImpl/remote-cool.ib.service.BlankService");
  | } catch(...){...}
In this code i believe, that login/passwor pair "vpumpkin"/"vpumpkin" is delivered up to JBoss server somehow by the BlankService proxy, even if i do login() in one thread, and invoke business method of EJB in another one. Right?

On the server-side i have the BlankServiceImpl bean:
@SecurityDomain(value = "IB-Automation")
  | @DeclareRoles(value = {"Blank-Reader", "Blank-Writer"})
  | @Stateless
  | public class BlankServiceImpl implements BlankService {
  | 
  |     @Override
  |     @RolesAllowed({"Blank-Writer"})
  |     public long persist(StrictBlankEntity blank) {...}
  | 
  |     @Override
  |     @RolesAllowed({"Blank-Reader", "Blank-Writer"})
  |     public List<StrictBlankEntity> list(){...}
  | 
  | }

I have updated the ${jboss-home}/server/default/conf/login-config.xml in the way it is described in 

http://www.jboss.org/file-access/default/members/jbossas/freezone/docs/Server_Configuration_Guide/4/html/Security_on_JBoss-Defining_Security_Domains.html

and in 

http://www.jboss.org/file-access/default/members/jbossas/freezone/docs/Server_Configuration_Guide/4/html/Using_JBoss_Login_Modules-DatabaseServerLoginModule.html

exactly after <application-policy name="other"/> declaration:  <application-policy name="IB-Automation">
  |   	<authentication>
  |   	  <login-module code="org.jboss.security.auth.spi.DatabaseServerLoginModule" flag="required">
  | 		<module-option name="dsJndiName">MUST_FAIL_HERE_SINCE_IT_IS_WRONG!!!</module-option>
  | 		<module-option name="principalsQuery">
  | 			MUST_FAIL_HERE_SINCE_IT_IS_WRONG_TOO!!!
  | 		</module-option>
  | 		<module-option name="rolesQuery">
  | 			MUST_FAIL_HERE_SINCE_IT_IS_WRONG_AS_WELL!!!
  | 		</module-option>
  |   	  </login-module>
  |   	</authentication>
  |   </application-policy> 
Having all these "MUST_FAIL_HERE...!!!" i expect juicy exceptions in console at the moment of retrieving datasource from JNDI or on attempts to get user info from database(anyway, with correct values it doesn't work).

I start client, and see ... exactly the result of BlankServiceImpl.list() method, like nothing prevents me to access it! Cool! :D

Well, ok... It seems, that @SecurityDomain(value = "IB-Automation") annotation is absolutely useless here. And it might work with old jboss.xml like they claim in 

http://www.jboss.org/file-access/default/members/jbossas/freezone/docs/Server_Configuration_Guide/4/html/The_JBoss_Security_Model-Enabling_Declarative_Security_in_JBoss_Revisited.html ?

I deploy server-side, start client, and on attempt to invoke any method of any EJB of my app in client's console i see

  | WOW!!! It definitely MAY work somewhere!!! Fantastic!!! :D

Well, couple of times i enjoyed exception claiming that default users and roles .properties files, required for org.jboss.security.auth.spi.UsersRolesLoginModule cannot be found -on   invoking EJB's business methods. It might be because the <application-policy name="other">...</application-policy> in the login-config.xml is invoked instead of the policy i've declared?

So i commented out application-policy name="other", restarted the server and client, but see no difference. The <application-policy name="IB-Automation"> is still being stubbornly ignored by JBoss.

What should i do to force JBoss 5.0.1 to use the declared application-policy(other than some bugfixing in the project - i am definitely neither JBoss, nor JAAS expert ;) )?
