Rick Hillegas updated DERBY-2196:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: derby-2196-03-tests-01.diff

Attaching derby-2196-03-tests-01.diff. This is a unit test to verify that the 
network server installs a security manager with the Basic policy as expected. 
Makes the following changes:

M      
java/testing/org/apache/derbyTesting/functionTests/tests/derbynet/_Suite.java

  Wires the test into the derbynet suite.

A      
java/testing/org/apache/derbyTesting/functionTests/tests/derbynet/SecureServerTest.java

  The test itself. Tests that the server, when booted, installs a security 
manager or not, depending on other command-line settings.


M      java/testing/org/apache/derbyTesting/junit/NetworkServerTestSetup.java

  Added some machinery for bringing the server up in a separate process. This 
test needs a separate process to avoid having to poke special test 
instrumentation into the network server itself.

M      java/testing/org/apache/derbyTesting/junit/SecurityManagerSetup.java
M      java/testing/org/apache/derbyTesting/junit/ServerSetup.java
M      java/testing/org/apache/derbyTesting/junit/TestConfiguration.java

  Made some machinery public.

> From an e-mail discussion:
> ... Derby should match the security  provided by typical client server 
> systems such as DB2, Oracle, etc. I 
> think in this case system/database owners are trusting the database 
> system to ensure that their system cannot be attacked. So maybe if Derby 
> is booted as a standalone server with no security manager involved, it 
> should install one with a default security policy. Thus allowing Derby 
> to use Java security manager to manage system privileges but not 
> requiring everyone to become familiar with them.
> http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/db-derby-dev/200612.mbox/[EMAIL 
> PROTECTED]
> I imagine such a policy would allow any access to databases under 
> derby.system.home and/or user.home.
> By standalone I mean the network server was started though the main() method 
> (command line).
