OK, more security questions... :)   How do I set the principal propagation 
policy for inter-component calls in Jonas? It says in the EJB spec:

"15.2.1 Invocation of other enterprise beans
... The management of caller principals passed on enterprise bean 
invocations (i.e. principal delegation) is set up by the Deployer and 
System Administrator in a container-specific way. The Bean Provider and 
Application Assembler should describe all the requirements for the caller's 
principal management of inter-enterprise bean invocations as part of the 
description".

This clearly suggests that it should be possible to set a policy in the 
deployment descriptor for the propagation of the principal in 
inter-component calls. And looking around, it appears that some other 
containers (e.g. Websphere) do support this. Has this been implemented yet, 
and if so how does one set it? There are certain inter-component calls 
where the default propagation policy (i.e. of the client principal) doesn't 
suit me.

BTW propagation of the client principal is working fine for me, I just want 
to be able to override it...
