I wasn't aware that Axis2 could hook into JAAS...  when you develop a J2EE
web service, the container takes care of parsing the security header for
credentials and using those credentials to authenticate against a defined
login context (ie., loginModules defined for that login context).  If
authentication is successful, a Subject is available for this current call
thread.  This Subject is used for determining webApp and EJB authorization.
Axis2 does not provide such integration to my knowledge.  It would be great
if it did.  Anyone, please correct me if I am wrong.

Subject: AXIS2 and LoginModule



I have implemented the Rampart module in my AXIS2 webservice with my own
CallbackHandler.  However, once authenticated my webservice calls secured
methods on an EJB session bean which fail.  It appears that the LoginModule
which normal stores the authenticated principals in context is not doing so,
or not doing so in a way which the EJBs can understand.  Since the Rampart
configuration only exposed the CallbackHandler class, I'm unsure what class
it is using or if I'm able to change it.

Does anyone know what the behavior of the Rampart LoginModule is?  Or how I
can achieve a call from the web service to a secured EJB method?
