Mark Slater commented on JCR-319:
---------------------------------

I just configured another system to use jackrabbit for the first time and left 
out the JAAS configuration. I installed the webapp and it ran without any 
problems... no security exceptions or anything else. I'm thinking of taking the 
JAAS section out of the docs for the test app since they don't seem to be 
needed; I think simplicity is key for getting people up and running with a 
repository to play with.

At the same time, the JSR 170 spec says very little about how security works 
inside a JCR repository, and Jackrabbit's documentation on the subject is also 
rather sparse. I'm not sure if the webapp *should* be working without the 
jaas.config file and associated JAVA_OPTS environment in place.

> Improve docs for deployment Models 1 and 2 on Tomcat 5.5.x and provide an 
> example webapp.
