CS1) The VM owner would have to specify credentials in order to boot the server.

How would we store and authenticate these credentials (we have no a priori DB or central repository unless authetication is via LDAP)? Would this require the system privileges to be completed or do you have another model in mind?


CS2) Those credentials would be required in order to shutdown the server, shutdown the engine, turn server-side tracing on/off, and in general use any of the public functions of NetworkServerControl/NetServlet.

and I guess, any interface we expose through our management beans?


CS3) SSL/TLS would be turned on. Unless overridden, certificate/key stores would be expected/created at some default location.

CS4) Some mechanism would control create/restore database powers across the network. Discussion needed.

Can you elaborate on what you have in mind here? Do you mean changing the data base owner (DBO) for a database? And/or the privileges referred to in CS2?

Thanks,
Dag
