has a distributed,
replicated directory service.

I
would like to know if any Application server supports
server
federation.
In principle I would consider two
models:
Centralized Federation: All servers use the same
Naming
service.Authentication and authorization is thus centralized
against
this service. It is then straightforward to propagate
security
information between components and stablish security
domains --for
example between EJB in server A and EJB in server B--. In
this case the
MOM services (JMS) are also centralized in the unique
directory.
Distributed federation: Each server has its own directory
service but it
is bind to other directory service (JNDI federation or
LDAP REFERRALS).
In this case it is also possible to stablish security
domains between
components but , the Authorization module in server X
should then follow
the referral or bind to the remote directory service
to look up user
information. The security propagation is thus
guaranteed.
Does anybody know any Application server supporting
either of these
models
?
