Thanks for testing instructions. However, the results are not good. I hid away the 
users/roles.properties under jmx-console.war and configured the entry in 
login-config.xml like so:
    <application-policy name = "jmx-console">
  |        <authentication>
  |           <login-module code="org.jboss.security.auth.spi.UsersRolesLoginModule"
  |              flag = "required" />
  |                 <module-option 
name="usersProperties">g-users.properties</module-option>
  |                 <module-option 
name="rolesProperties">g-roles.properties</module-option>
  |        </authentication>
  |     </application-policy>
The files g-* are under conf and my other servlets, which do not contain their own 
users/roles, find them and work right. The jmx-console does this:

The files under tmp are dated June 2003, belong to web-console and contain a trivial 
admin password.
So the jmx-console login config does not find the authentication resource under 
"deploy" and so it goes out for some file I dont know where it came from. I think 
jboss is following here some unspecified chain of defaults quite against the stated 
configuration policy and it is intrducing a security hole.

Thanks for your attention
