Hello Ying:

Thank you for the information.

I am not clear what you said about the SQL database security realm: "the SQL database security realm is used to authenticate username and password from
the built-in Derby database".  Could you explain more?
If we cannot use the realm to authenticate Admin Console users, can we use
it the authenticate application users?

While what Ying said is correct, I don't think it answered your question. IIUC what you want to do is covered by the instructions here: http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC22/basic-hints-on-security-configuration.html

Note that the admin console is set up to use a security realm named "geronimo-admin" so you have to set up your SQL security realm with that name and disable the realm of that name supplied with geronimo (which will happen when you include the artifact aliases as recommended in the article).

hope this helps

Thanks.

Hi Michael,

As far as I can tell, the SQL database security realm is used to
authenticate username and password from the built-in Derby database, not
for
Geronimo admin console.

For changing the username and password for the Administration Console,
you
can use the *Users and Groups* portlet  in the console.

Please see this page for more details:
http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC22/changing-the-username-and-password.html

Hope this helps.

I created a new SQL Security Realm, tested and deployed to Geronimo 2.1.3 server, but when I reboot the server and try to use the new user name and
password defined in the new SQL Security Realm to log into the admin
console, it does not work. I have to use the default user name and
password
to get in.

My question is: can I use the SQL Security Realm for the Admin Console
user
authentication?

Thanks for your help.

Michael.
