Hi,
As far as I know the only framework taht provides the indirection
needed for any security checking on top of RMI (including host based)
is through EJB.
only weblogic has a run-time (and a clunky one at that) on Linux, and
it is not OSS. As far as I know there is no OSS'd EJB run-time on
linux.
Enterprise Java Beans allow you to define ACLs at the method level and
generates wrappers for the access checks.
I don't know of a way to overwrite the RMI core classes to implement
this service otherwise (The RMI socket factory, would check a
particular host? i dont' know.....).
Your safest bet is to wait a few days... friends from the Valley told
me an EJB-OSS server for Linux is about to be released... (?) ABOUT
TIME too...
regards,
blaise
