I am wondering where are stored the credentials. For now, I didn't backup login and password. Should I? If so how?
Jackrabbit uses Java Authentication and Authorization Services (JAAS) and the AccessManager interface for authentication and access control. The default implementation included in Jackrabbit simply gives access to any username/password combination. In a normal deployment the user accounts would be stored in an external LDAP directory or another "realm" implementation of a J2EE container, so they'd be external to the repository itself. The configured AccessManager could either use ACLs or similar authorization information within the repository itself, or in some external store. If such information needs to be backed up/restored, then that would be best handled with a custom extension to your backup framework. So, to answer your question: No, you don't need to worry about that as long as you backup the repository configuration and provide an extension mechanism for a custom AccessManager to backup itself.
