Multiple JAAS Identities from Single Client?

843811Oct 4 2001 — edited Oct 4 2001
Hi all

Specifically I am trying to talk from one jboss app server to another with different JAAS security identities in each, but I am having difficulties. In the simple case though I wonder if anyone has managed to perform 2 JAAS logins with diferent subjects to a server and use them independently?

I have tried creating 2 LoginContexts and executing login() on each and then calling the methods I require, but only ever the last login() subject is used.

Has anyone else tried this, is it possible to have different identities in different threads? How are the LoginContexts associated with the subsequent method calls? Is it a static (hence ClassLoader) scope or a thread scope?

Any ideas appreciated!

Thanks

Luke
