Run your session bean as CLIENT_IDENTITY.

Subject: caller identity
I am sorry if this topic was discussed before.
We are using WebLogic 4.5.1
All our database tables have a username field, which hold the name of the
person who created/updated the record.
When the user logs in, in the servlet I create the JNDI context object using
his username and password.
In the EJB, I extract the user's name using
String username = sessionContext.getCallerIdentity().getName();
or
String username = entityContext.getCallerIdentity().getName();
( getCallerPrincipal() is not supported in WebLogic 4.5.1)
Assume I make a sessionbean call and session bean calles entitybeans.
I get the user's name right in the sessionbean.
But in the entitybean i get the user's name as "system".
Question: What is the way to get the actual user name in the entity bean
also?
Note: I create the JNDI context object in session bean using
Context ctx = sessonContext.getEnvironment();
I won't be able to create context object from scratch since I don't
have
the user's password when I am in sessionbean.
TIA
Ashwath
