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

[Randahl Fink Isaksen]

Moreover, a call to SecurityAssociation.getPrincipal() returns null both before and after the login… any ideas?     Randahl   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Scott M Stark Sent: 2. oktober 2002 18:50 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [JBoss-user] How to log in from an MBean   That is what is needed, but it must be done in the context of the thread making the ejb call.   xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Scott Stark Chief Technology Officer JBoss Group, LLC xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ----- Original Message ----- From: Randahl Fink Isaksen To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 02, 2002 4:55 AM Subject: [JBoss-user] How to log in from an MBean   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
