Oleg's answered this more correctly than I did. What I was alluding to is if
you had multiple loginmodule then they would share the same Subject for a
given user.

The Subject is magic :-) it's shared.

Subject: [jBoss-Dev] jaas - commit()
I am currently tryint to write a loginModule that
uses DBAuthentication and uses roles.
I was checking out the AbstractLoginModule class
and noticed that it just took the Subject reference
and added roles to it. Is this all that is necessary
to add roles to a user.
What is going on under the hood here. How does jBoss
get the subject back later? I.E. I thought rmi calls
where pass by value.
Thanks.
