[wildfly-dev] Propagation of user credentials or user session between two WildFly servers

[Manikanta Vasu]

Hi,

I have two WildFly 8.1.0 instances (A and B) secured by the same custom
SecurityDomain.

Client authenticates on 'server A' and performs invocation of Stateless
Bean on that server. Then, bean on 'server A' performs remote invocation of
a Bean on 'server B'. So the invocation looks like this: Client -> server A
-> server B. All communication is done via http-remoting connection, scoped
EJB client context.

The question is how to propagate client credentials or user session to the
server B?

Is it possible to configure Wildfly server A in the way that context of the
logged user is passed from the client further to the server B? Any ideas?
Is it possible or just bad idea?

I'm not sure if some kind of SSO should be applied here. what are your
thoughts?
