[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Closed: (JBSEAM-918) Group principal can be "roles" or "Roles"

[Gavin King (JIRA)]

     [ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-918?page=all ]

Gavin King closed JBSEAM-918.
-----------------------------

    Resolution: Rejected

It's definitely not in Seam code, its in the JAAS LoginModule. If you're using JBoss, ask in a JBoss AS related forum.

> In our environment we use a jaas login module to get much of the role information from the Active Directory tree.  When trying to do role based authorization with Seam, we are always denied access.  It appears that this is because the Groups principal name in our environment is "Roles" instead of "roles".  I have no idea how the name is controlled.  However, by simply changing the "equals" calls with "equalsIgnoreCase", everything works fine.
