Hello Scott.

I am beginner at JBoss security, so sorry for my silly question. As
it is written in documentation, the client login module (during login
method call) simply binds the username and password to JBoss EJB
invocation layer for later authentication on the server. Does the
logout method has a remote call inside the realization, during which
the auth cache at the server is cleaned from correspondent
principal/credential information?
