auto-create-users will have no effect until you secure slide using a non-Slide realm. You have to get that working first - and the wiki page doesn't really describe this properly. The effect it will have is that when you authenticate against the external realm, Slide will automatically create a collection in /slide/users named after the principal you have logged in as.
I believe there is also a setting for auto-create-roles that will do the same with any of the roles that the principal has in /slide/roles. The effect of this is that you will then be able to set ACLS on specific URIs based on these users and roles. If you don't use auto-create-users and auto-create-roles, you can use application logic (say in the portlet itself, assuming this is what you are developing) that can create these collections for you. These settings got non-slide authentication working for me: server/default/deploy/slide.war/WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE jboss-web PUBLIC "-//JBoss//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN" "http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/dtd/jboss-web_3_0.dtd";> <jboss-web> <class-loading java2ClassLoadingCompliance="false"> <loader-repository>org.apache.slide:loader=slide.war</loader-repository> </class-loading> <security-domain>java:/jaas/slide-domain</security-domain> <resource-ref> <res-ref-name>jdbc/SlideDS</res-ref-name> <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type> <jndi-name>java:/jdbc/SlideDS</jndi-name> </resource-ref> </jboss-web> in server/default/conf/login-config.xml I added a policy <application-policy name = "slide-domain"> <authentication> <login-module code = "org.jboss.security.auth.spi.DatabaseServerLoginModule" flag="required"> <module-option name = "dsJndiName">java:/jdbc/SecurityDS</module-option> <module-option name = "principalsQuery"> select password from Users where username=? </module-option> <module-option name = "rolesQuery"> select groupname, null from GroupMembers m where m.username = ? </module-option> </login-module> </authentication> </application-policy> Hope it helps.

I'm building on jboss-4.0. Shouldn't be too different, save the fact that its sitting on Tomcat 5. I tried adding the auto-create-users node to domain.xml and it had no effect. Could you give me an example of of configuring the SlideRealm? Once I get this working, I'll update the wiki page as well... it leaves a lot of loose ends.

This means that you either need to use the "auto-create-users" = true setting in Domain.xml or manually synchronise users in your Realm with the Slide users at /slide/users. Hope this helps. Patrick -----Original Message----- From: Roy Russo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tue 11/30/2004 2:29 PM To: 'Slide Users Mailing List' Subject: slide and jboss I'm curious if anyone has been able to get authentication to work in jboss. Commenting out the lines in web.xml, brings up a login prompt, using DAVExplorer, but no username or passwords are accepted. My log spits out the following: 09:21:29,624 ERROR [UsersRolesLoginModule] Failed to load users/passwords/role files java.io.IOException: Properties file users.properties not found at org.jboss.security.auth.spi.UsersRolesLoginModule.loadProperties(UsersRolesLoginModule.java:217) at org.jboss.security.auth.spi.UsersRolesLoginModule.loadUsers(UsersRolesLoginModule.java:234) at org.jboss.security.auth.spi.UsersRolesLoginModule.initialize(UsersRolesLoginModule.java:100) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:324) at javax.security.auth.login.LoginContext.invoke(LoginContext.java:662) at javax.security.auth.login.LoginContext.access$000(LoginContext.java:129) at javax.security.auth.login.LoginContext$4.run(LoginContext.java:610) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at javax.security.auth.login.LoginContext.invokeModule(LoginContext.java:607) at javax.security.auth.login.LoginContext.login(LoginContext.java:534) at org.jboss.security.plugins.JaasSecurityManager.defaultLogin(JaasSecurityManager.java:491) at org.jboss.security.plugins.JaasSecurityManager.authenticate(JaasSecurityManager.java:442) ... Moving a users.properties file around in the slide.war seems to do absolutely nothing. I'm not sure if this is the way to go, either, and I may be missing something simple. I'm currently evaluating slide for use in JBoss Portal.
