Re: help ! security realms

2004-08-26 Thread Prem kalyan 
hi Alan , Gianny

 Thanks for the suggestions and the direction. I went through the
security Providers thread but that didn't clear my questions. As far
as my understanding of Realm goes it is
logical grouping of Users, Groups, ACLs, and permissions , is it the
same in geronimo or something else.

  When i went through 
http://nagoya.apache.org/eyebrowse/[EMAIL PROTECTED]msgNo=8168
 this message archive  , the security realm basically talks about JAAS
modules (LoginContext , LoginModules and Gbeans etc)  , users .

1 .  What about permissions and the ACL context.
2.   Where do we specify all that stuff that went into the Gbean( i
mean do we specify it in DD or do we need to write policy files and
config files for JAAS)
3.   What entries do we need to make in Deployment descriptors.
4.   How are role names related to realm-names (WHY realm PART OF
role-name) in openejbjar.xml's XSD.

 Prem, you should also visit irc://irc.freenode.net/Geronimo.  This is
 where the Geronimo developers hang out.

  hi all,
 I am going through the security part of geronimo and the
  corresponding deployment descriptor elements.I have few questions in
  this regard
  
1. What are all the different security realms supported in
  geronimo.
2. What values does the attribute 'realm-name' in tag
 realm
  takes.
  
  
  Hi Prem,
 
  I think that you should have a look to a previous thread named
 Security
  providers. Alan is describing how the security layer is implemented
 and
  covers more or less these questions.
 
3. What is the equivalent in geronimo  for filerealm in
  weblogic.
  
  
  If you have a look in var/security of a Geronimo installation, you
 will
  see for instance a users.properties file. This guy is to Geronimo what
  fileRealm.properties is for WebLogic (OK, the WebLogic one does not
  store the password in clear).
 
  Cheers,
  Gianny
