The SecurityProxy is a JBoss proprietary feature that Geronimo doesn't support. At the moment we don't have anything directly comparable implemented.

Starting with j2ee 1.4 the "official" way to implement security dependent on the ejb method calls is to do it in a JACC provider. In a JACC provider you can use the ejb method call in the determination of whether to grant an ejb permission to a caller. I suspect we could write a JACC provider that delegated to something like the JBoss SecurityProxy. When considering this before I was thinking more in terms of a rule engine, but certainly just writing code is simpler :-)

Would you be interested in working on an implementation of this? I'm interested but currently short of time, but I'd be happy to discuss how to do it with you.

thanks

Hi!
I'm in the process to migrate to Geronimo an application originally
build for JBoss.
This application uses custom EJB security through implementing the
org.jboss.security.SecurityProxy interface. How could this be done with
Geronimo. The reasons I've approached this issue that way and not the
facade bean using isUserInRole are the tight integration with the
application server architecture and that of this way I can write neat
and more maintainable code.

PD: sorry, my English sucks.

Thanks in advance.
