Hi anil.saldhana
    since the ejb tier is on a different box than the web tier, I thought that 
conceptually, I would need to configure the ejb tier to trust the security info 
coming in from a specific web tier box (otherwise, it may be possible to fake 
the principal and get in without authentication.)

    anyways, I tested this configuration using  form base authentication at the 
web tier level and then invoking an ejb on a different box. I invoked a method 
that doesn't require any authorization and that works fine (initial context 
plumbing working). When I tried a method requiring authorization, got an 
exception saying that there is insufficient permission and that the 
principal=null. Am I missing something?

thx
Robert
