Sorry for the ignorance but I'm a total newbie to EJBs and I'm far from being an expert in Security. So I'm not sure about what JAAS has to offer that Acegi doesn't offer.
Reading the Acegi FAQ, "It can today authenticate via delegation to a JAAS login module. This means it offers the same level of JAAS integration as many web containers. Indeed the container adapter model supported by Acegi Security allows Acegi Security and container-managed security to happily co-exist and benefit from each other." So... I'm guessing that the username/password is stored in JAAS tables for authentication purposes but the ROLES management is still stored in the table that Acegi recognizes for any Acegi authorization. I'm thinking that it should not take much to get Acegi up and running with Seam since it makes use of IoC container which is available to the Seam application. I will most definately try to get this working and will post the code if someone else doesn't beat me to it. It may be a few months before I tackle this though.
