i created a simple webservice (EJB) which used the existing JDBCRealm:
==========
@WebService
public class HelloWorld {
  @WebMethod
  public String sayHelloWorldFrom() {
    return "OK";
  }
}
==========
<sun-ejb-jar>
  <security-role-mapping>
    <role-name>kitchen</role-name>
    <group-name>kitchen</group-name>
  </security-role-mapping>
  <enterprise-beans>
    <ejb>
      <ejb-name>HelloWorld</ejb-name>
      <jndi-name>HelloWorld</jndi-name>
      <webservice-endpoint>
        <port-component-name>HelloWorld</port-component-name>
        <login-config>
          <auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>
          <realm>kitchen</realm>
        </login-config>
      </webservice-endpoint>
    </ejb>
  </enterprise-beans>
</sun-ejb-jar>
======

with the correct login/password:
"127.0.0.1" "NULL-AUTH-USER" "04/Jun/2009:12:21:17 +0100" "POST /HelloWorldService/HelloWorld HTTP/1.1" 200 225

with an incorrect login/passwd:
"127.0.0.1" "NULL-AUTH-USER" "04/Jun/2009:12:28:26 +0100" "POST /HelloWorldService/HelloWorld HTTP/1.1" 401 1036

and my simple client gets:
Exception in thread "main" com.sun.xml.internal.ws.client.ClientTransportException: request requires HTTP authentication: Unauthorized
