Hello Everybody, I'm a JavaEE newbie and I've just begun studying authentication mechanisms for securing EJBs. I'm trying the container-based security, and I followed what is described in the article that can be found at http://www.packtpub.com/article/ejb-3-security. In the section "Authenticating an EJB Application Client" it is reported that if in the file sun-ejb-jar.xml it is specified <as-context> <auth-method>USERNAME_PASSWORD</auth-method> .... </as-context> when an InitialContext.lookup() is invoked a "basic" default login frame is displayed, so that the user can insert username and password. Ok, it works (of course!). But I'd like to obtain a different behaviour: I assume that I already have username and password when I call the lookup (i.e., because user as already inserted these data before through my "beautiful" login form :)) so I don't want the default login form to be displayed. I'd like to send username and password from the code, may be through the Context. I tried to set the context properties (SECURITY_PRINCIPAL <- username, SECURITY_CREDENTIALS <- password) but the default login frame is still diplayed What do I need to do? Thanks in advance for your precious suggestions. Kind regards, Max
