[JBoss-user] How to log in from an MBean

[Randahl Fink Isaksen]

I am writing an MBean which should access my deployed EJBs. However, when I invoke my EJBs from it I get   java.lang.SecurityException: Authentication exception, principal=null   so, assuming that a login is necessary, I carried out a standard JAAS client login from my MBean like this                                       LoginContext loginContext = new LoginContext(                                                 "myDomain",                                                 new MyCallbackHandler("userAccoutn", new char[]{'1', '2', '3', '4'})                                     );   where “userAccount” is a user account I normally use for logging into my “myDomain” in JBoss.   This, however, does not work. I still get the authentication exception above. Is this approach incorrect? Is there a special login API for MBeans running inside JBoss, other than JAAS? Can you disable login requirements for MBeans?   Any help will be highly appreciated.   Randahl
