Yes, there is no in-build integration between Axis2 and Acegi but it
doesn't imply you can't use Acegi with Axis2 or Rampart. If this
question related to "sufficient functionality" then the answer is
"yes".

In case of Axis2, it's again simple as accessing to Spring
ApplicationContext , once you have access to the ApplicationContext
you can use Acegi features such as
AccessDecisionManager , AuthenticationManager etc. In most of the
cases this is enough to achieve Acegi Authentication/Authorization.
May be you will find some issues to achieve advanced features of Acegi
, if so reporting such instances is important to find out possible
solution too.

But integrating Rampart with Acegi is a bit of a challenging task
because there is no API method available to access ApplicationContext
within the Rampart CallbackHandler . But it is possible to find a
work-around for this depending on your requirements. As a example this
one [1] worked  with me for two of my past applications.
