I don't know much about the DataSourceUserManager but I presume there's a
way to store groups in there.
You're looking for the RoleManager (for Roles) and UserManager, they're
stored at java:comp/UserManager and java:comp/RoleManager respecitvely. If
you want an example using the EJBUserManager, try unjarring the EJB jar of
the ATM example app with .9.4. Look at the beans AccountUserManager and
AccountUser I think.
