Hi,
I have successfully managed to write a custom realm to authenticate against a bespoke system.
How do I now get an application client that accesses these ejb's to authenticate against that realm?
I have hunted around for any documentation on this and keep hitting against a brick wall.
sun-ejb-jar.xml excerpt
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE sun-ejb-jar PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Application Server 9.0 EJB 3.0//EN" "

IVRealm is the custom realm. I have checked logs to ensure that it has been setup and initialised correctly, which it has been.
EJB defined as:
@Stateful(name="ContactBean", mappedName="ejb/ContactBean")
@Remote(ContactRemote.class)
@RolesAllowed("admin")
public class ContactBean extends ObjectBean<Contact, ContactRemote> implements ContactRemote {
...
}
I try to acccess the EJB using:
Properties props = new Properties();
props.setProperty(Context.SECURITY_AUTHENTICATION, "simple");
props.setProperty(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "testing");
props.setProperty(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "testing");
InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext(props);
T ref = (T) ctx.lookup("ejb/ContactBean");
When trying to access it, I get java.rmi.AccessException:
I have sufficient logging enabled in the custom realm but an authentication request is never received.
Am I misunderstanding how the authentication works?
Any help in resolving this would be greatly appreciated.
Best Wishes,
Shri
