We are working on a standalone swing client for our own enterprise application 
running on jboss. From the information available on the net we have managed to 
get simple authentication against database tables with jboss up and running 
without much fuss.


The problem is that we need an additional property on our Principal. The 
property is a code that specifies which set of our pretty complex configuration 
rules should apply for a specific user session.


We have implemented our own Principal and subclassed DatabaseServerLoginModule 
to create an instance of it instead of the default principal. The problem is 
that the additional property is not a property of the user in the user database 
but rather a runtime property that the user sets in the login dialog when 
starting the application. This is solved by doing a remote ejb-call directly 
after the initial context is setup that sets the 'code'.


There must be a better way to do this, we have tried to set initialcontext 
properties but they do not seem accessible from the LoginModule, we have tried 
creating the custom principal on the client side and sending that - no success.


Can someone give us a good pointer to a good way to do this?
