Authenticating a Client in Sun Java System Application Server 8.2

The authentication is done based on JAAS (Java Authorization and Authentication System API). If a client does not provide a CallbackHandler, then the default CallbackHandler, called the LoginModule, is used by the ACC to obtain the authentication data.

For detailed instructions on using JAAS for authentication, see Chapter 9, Configuring Security, in Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8.2 Administration Guide.
