I'm just starting in on a new project. I have been directed to create a SOAP 
service that will be consumed by a Portlet. The portal server is on a 
physically separate server from the JBoss EJB3/SOAP server.

What I want to do is to take the Authenticated Principal from the Portal and 
pass it back to the server running the SOAP services. How would I do this? I 
assume that JAAS plays a role and the secret is in a properly configured realm.

The documentation I have assumes the SOAP and Portal programs are on the same 
server... but these programs are on physically different servers. I can see 
this being a problem if I have to coordinate authentication between multiple 
SOAP servers which I know many shops must have to do. So, I figure there must 
be a straight forward solution that I'm not finding in the JBoss wiki, the 
JBoss text books I have, or the other training materials. 

I'm trying to answer this security question before I start writing application 
code.

Thanks.
